Unless stated otherwise, all general meetings of the Los Angeles Mycological Society are held in the Times-Mirror Meeting Room at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, 900 Exposition Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA  90007

Important Note to LAMS members and other meeting attendees: Due to a major remodeling project at the Museum, the Staff parking lot off Exposition Blvd that we have used since 1995 will be closed until further notice.  There is an additional Staff parking lot to the west which is accessible off of Menlo Ave that you are encouraged to use.  Please follow the directions below and refer to the Google Earth image below to orient yourself.

General Meetings:
From the Harbor Freeway, I-110, exit at Exposition Blvd., cross Figueroa Boulevard at an angle and go WEST on Exposition Boulevard past the Museum of Science and Industry.  After about 3 blocks you will reach a stoplight at Menlo Ave just past a bronze statue of two dinosaurs on the south side of Exposition Blvd.  Make a left turn at Menlo Ave and go SOUTH (left) about 150 feet to a driveway marked by a sign marked "Staff/Overflow Parking".  Turn LEFT into the staff parking lot.  After regular museum hours you may park in any space that is not marked as "permanently reserved".   At the EAST end of the Staff parking lot is a concrete wall enclosing one side of a promenade leading to the public museum entrance.  There is a gate in the wall and after passing through the gate you enter the promenade.    Directly across the promenade about 50' north of the south end of the east wall of the promenade is a ramp leading down to the staff entrance.  At the staff entrance you will be required to sign in with the guard and be given a "Visitor" tag.  Follow the mushroom signs to the Times-Mirror Room.

The entrance to the Staff lot on Menlo Ave is just above the word "Entrance".
