CULVER CITY ART DISTRICT

Along with the explosion of new restaurants in downtown Culver City there has been an upswing in the number of gallery openings. (Something for all those hungry diners to do have after they have enjoyed their meal, or, are perhaps waiting for their reservations.) The link below provides a map of gallery locations in the area. Mind you, there's been a lot of change as far as which galleries are open, reopened, etc. The map at least provides a sense of the layout of the 'Art District'.

Paramount Swap Meet

 

This is considered the biggest daily Swap Meet in the State.  Originally, the property was designed to be used as a two-screen drive-in which explains all the open space. (The drive-in stopped operating in the 1980s according to locals.)  In practical terms this means:  1) expect lots of outdoor walking,  and  2)  dress appropriately -  wear comfortable walking shoes,  sun and/or rain protection.  You might want to even bring a cart for your purchases if you have one.  Come here to buy inexpensive clothing, toys, housewares, accessories, plants, etc.

It is centrally Located Between the 91, 105, 605, &710 Freeways. You will find lots of  parking with waves of shoppers looking to park their vehicles.  Expect the empty  free parking spaces to have disappeared by 9:30 a.m. during the week, earlier on the weekend.  Security guards patrol the parking lot and help to direct traffic flow.  On a typical day, there are several hundred vendors to buy from. There is an admission fee for adults.
