One of L.A.'s primary cultural destinations is the Bergamot Arts Station. Home to the Santa Monica Museum of Art, this campuslike complex is a hugely popular destination for visitors from around the world. The location dates from 1875 when it was a stop for the Red Line trolley, and retains its industrial, rustic look. Filled with 20 galleries, the unique installations on display here range...

Santa Monica's sprawling fine-arts complex is fast becoming the cultural epicenter for contemporary art.

Great lunch place. Staff is friendly and super helpful. They remember regulars. Nice covered outdoor seating option. Beer and wine available for "one of those days" or, you know, just because.

Bergamot Station is located at 2525 Michigan Ave, Santa Monica, CA. This location is in the Pico neighborhood. This business specializes in Art Galleries and has 3 review(s) with a star rating of 4.7.

Since 1994, Bergamot Station Ltd has been providing Real Property Lessors, Nec from Santa Monica.

Both a former trolley station and factory, this art centre is a collection of many important galleries, including the Santa Monica Museum of Art.

The name of this landmark comes from a 19th-century trolley that was once located there. The trolley went between Los Angeles and the Santa Monica Pier. Now, Bergamot Station is an art complex housing over 30 galleries. There's a cafe onsite which makes it convenient to get a snack while you're visiting.

In 1875 Bergamot Station was a trolley station for the famous Red Line Trolley that ran from downtown L.A. to Santa Monica. After the trains stopped running in 1953, the station saw a lot of residents, from a celery packing plant to a proposed stop on a new light rail. In 1994, the property became the Bergamot Station Arts Center, keeping the industrial look and shape it held over a century...

Tips about this business (3)

Know Before You Go

Located in the A building, the Gallery Cafe at Bergamot Station serves soups, sandwiches, salads and cappuccinos.

Parking

The large parking lot is always free, but fills to capacity on opening nights, so arrive early.

When to Go

Opening night receptions are staggered, except for Bergamot's annual, group "reopening" in September, when galleries coordinate receptions. These events are almost always free--unless there's a special benefit.
