MUSEUM OF NEON ART REVIEWS
The Museum of Neon Art in nearby Glendale is a unique and fun attraction that has one of the biggest collections of neon art in the world. For decades, the museum has been displaying electric media and neon signs, some of which have historical and pop culture significance such as the infamous sign from the Brown Derby. As you explore the museum, you’ll learn about the interesting techniques used to create this type of art as well as the history behind it. Some of the displays rotate throughout the year so there are always new items to see. Throughout the week, neon cruise bus tours are available and during one of these tours, you’ll see many of the epic neon signs that currently adorn various businesses around the area.
If you are in Glendale, you should be spending an hour at the MONA. Great selection of neon signs, including the famous Brown Derby sign. When you leave you will see how many places still use neon signs and it's becoming trendy. The Neon signs are simply stunning up close and worth a good look. You absolutely get your money's worth, especially if you're a resident of Glendale. They also do bus tours, and it is on my list of things to do.
Friendly, informed staff educate & inform amongst current (pun intended) & historic neon art & signage

ALEX THEATRE REVIEWS
Wonderful old-time theatre. We saw the Three Stooges film festival. It was a lot of fun, there were some of the original Stooges families there. There was an MC also. Definitely will go again.
The Alex Theatre in nearby Glendale is a well-known landmark in Los Angeles County and it’s been in operation since the mid-1920s.Throughout the year, over 250 live shows are showcased at the theatre including theatrical performances, dance recitals, concerts, comedy acts and TV and film award ceremonies.

The Sound of Music sing-a-long was a blast! The whole crowd singing along and commenting on the movie was so much fun and generally hilarious! A great time!
