Art isn't meant to just engage your eyes. Great art moves you, speaks to you, and inspires you to want to learn more about it. That's exactly what you will experience when you visit the Long Beach Museum of Art. Featuring some of the most impressive pieces of work rendered in various media, this popular attraction embraces both the creations and the creators of art. The museum itself qualifies as a unique piece of art in its own right, as its stunning construction and design allow the building to be situated atop a bluff which offers an equally mesmerizing view of Long Beach Harbor.

So you've been going casual the last few times you've gone out to enjoy the Long Beach nightlife. Try something completely different by dressing up and experiencing a first-class treatment when you make the Sky Room your destination for the evening. You will feel like you are in a Hollywood movie the moment you step into this classic nightlife venue. Enjoy pre-dinner cocktails and appetizers before your main entree. Of course, you must leave room for a scrumptious dessert. Enjoy all of this while a pianist adds just the right musical touch every night of the week except Saturdays when a seven piece orchestra performs melodies to complement a perfectly classic evening.

When you visit the Pacific Island Ethnic Art Museum, you will be astounded at the various works of art and exhibits that all go to tell the story of how the various cultures in this part of the world overlap. In fact, it is the mission of this exceptional facility to incorporate the diversity of the different cultures of the Pacific islands, with a special focus on Micronesia, to offer a compelling and panoramic view of what each of these groups contributes to the region's history and way of life.

If you are bringing the whole family out for a day of fun in the California sun, then the appropriately-named Mother's Beach is the most obvious choice. This recently-renovated beach park offers plenty of amenities and attractions that will please the whole family. There's a little whale at the center of the kiddie splash pad, rocks to climb, swings to swing on, and of course, lots of sand! A swimming area for adults and older kids is roped off from the area designated for toddlers and kiddies to enjoy.
