The Prospect Hollywood is an elegant 1939 Hollywood Regency-style building in the neighborhood of Whitley Heights. Designed by Martyn Lawrence Bullard, the hotel has recently been updated with a sophisticated sensibility, while incorporating the glamor of the era in which it was built. A luxurious 4-star property, the hotel has been dubbed by Condé Nast as "the perfect hotel." It offers top-notch amenities and convenient access to the city's premier galleries, collections, and dining.

The Getty Center is one of the world's largest cultural and philanthropic institutions dedicated to the visual arts. Getty was established by businessman and art collector J. Paul Getty, who viewed art as a civilizing influence in society and his bequest enabled the creation of the Trust. The Trust sought to establish an institution that served all facets of the art world, including research, display, conservation, publishing, grants, and education. The Trust constructed the Getty Villa in Pacific Palisades and the Getty Center in Brentwood, expanded the collections of the Museum, and created the Getty Conservation Institute, the Getty Research Institute, and the Getty Foundation, forming the organization we now call Getty.

Regen Projects is a notable contemporary art gallery in Central Los Angeles. Founded in 1989 by Stuart Regen and Shaun Caley Regen, the gallery has had three different locations in the city. It's current location was completed in 2012 by architect Michael Maltzan. Regen Projects represents a wide range of artists, including Doug Aitken, Matthew Barney, Abraham Cruzvillegas, Anish Kapoor, Catherine Opie, and Alex Hubbard. They gave Barney his first solo exhibition and were the first gallery to represent Opie. 

Catherine Opie (b. 1961) is an American fine art photographer whose work primarily explores community, identity, and judgment.Working between conceptual and documentary approaches to image making, Opie examines familiar genres—portraiture, landscape, and studio photography—in unexpected compositions by pursuing radically different subject matter. She investigates the ways in which photographs both document and give voice to social phenomena in America today, registering people's attitudes and relationships to themselves and others, and the ways in which they occupy the landscape.
