Although the Museum of Neon Art is moving to Glendale, its incredibly fun downtown bus tours continue. Start out with a little social and liquid lubrication, aka drinks and appetizers, before climbing onto an open-top double-decker bus to cruise the streets of L.A. for two hours in search of the city's best neon art. Well-versed docents help you discover both the history of neon and Los Angeles as seen through its old neon signs. Akin to the L.A. Conservancy in its efforts, the museum's mission statement proclaims that it “encourages learning and curiosity through the preservation, collection and interpretation of neon art.” Judging by its blast of a bus tour, it's fulfilling that mission. Visit its website for an entertainingly informative explanation of how neon really works. (Yes, I'm a geek.) 136 W. Fourth St., dwntwn.; neonmona.org.
