Hey guys and gals, Let’s go to the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures located at 6067 Wilshire Blvd, Los Angeles on Friday June 13, 2025.  We’ll meet at the front door at 10:15 am and we have the option to have lunch afterwards at the onsite Fanny’s Cafe and Restaurant (named after the early Hollywood star Fanny Brice). Carol Arenson gave the museum and restaurant a rating of two thumbs up!

The Academy Museum of Motion Pictures celebrates the art and science of movies—past, present, and future. Its exhibitions and programs convey the magic of cinema and offer a glimpse behind the screen, illuminating the creative and collaborative process of filmmaking. Also, there are several permanent and temporary exhibits which are free to us with our general admission.

The Cafe menu has items ranging from $13 for the Simple Salad to $25 for the Meatballs named Desire. The Restaurant has a more extensive menu and is pricier with $13 for the Simple Salad and $65 for the Some Like it Hot Steak Frites. Both menus can be found here: MENU
