Tuesday
Want to see some dinosaurs? Admission to the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles is free most first Tuesdays of the month, and the exhibits are really cool. Get there early when it opens, and it’s a good idea to go online and order free tickets. (California teachers, active and retired military and CA EBT card holders get free admission every day, with ID.) Parking costs $12 or ride the Metro. Location: 900 Exposition Blvd. Los Angeles.

Next one is Friday night, Feb. 10, where everyone can come to the outdoor shark exhibit and touch bamboo sharks and see other types from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. The entire aquarium isn’t free, just the shark exhibit.
