The Norton Simon Museum at 411 West Colorado Boulevard pairs galleries with a landscaped sculpture garden. Its collections span European and American art as well as South and Southeast Asian works, giving visitors several routes through an afternoon of art.
Allow roughly two hours as an itinerary estimate, with time to pause outdoors by the garden’s pond and sculpture displays. Published regular hours begin at noon; Tuesday and Wednesday are closed. The museum website provides tickets, accessibility information, visitor rules and mobile audio tours. Check current exhibitions and holiday closures before travelling.
