Museum of Neon Art

The Museum of Neon Art displays historical illuminated signs, contemporary neon artworks, and glowing installations across several exhibition areas in a building on Brand Boulevard in Glendale. The spaces feature a wide range of neon glass art forms, from classic vintage signs to modern artistic experiments.

The museum was founded in 1981 by artists and began collecting and restoring historical illuminated signs from across the city. In 2016, it relocated to Glendale to provide more space for its growing collection and new exhibitions.

The collection features restored neon signs from famous Los Angeles locations that bring back memories of the city's glamorous past. Visitors see how these glowing artworks shaped the identity of local landmarks.

Visitors can take time to explore the various exhibition areas and learn about the techniques behind neon production. For those interested in hands-on activities, workshops are offered where you can learn the basics of neon glass bending.

The museum has restored hundreds of historical neon signs from across the city and relit many of them in local neighborhoods. This rescue effort has helped keep the glowing artworks shaping Los Angeles' streetscape.
