Museum of Neon Art
A museum dedicated to the preservation, collection, and interpretation of neon art and signs.
Founded in 1981 by Lili Lakich and Richard Jenkins, the Museum of Neon Art is based in California. The organization focuses on the preservation and interpretation of neon art and signs, offering educational opportunities such as classes in neon bending.
Originally established in downtown Los Angeles, the museum moved several times—including locations in Chinatown and Universal CityWalk—before opening its current location at 216 S. Brand Blvd in Glendale in 2016. Since 1985, the museum has also operated "Neon Cruises," which are guided tours of neon signage across Los Angeles.
