We were in…read morethe Pasadena area and took a trip to Riverside for this museum and am so happy with the experience. The collection is broad, complex, thoughtful and I was happy to hear different art is rotated so you can have various experiences each time you visit. I have NEVER experienced a collection of art that spoke to me and my identity so deeply. The design, content, narrative and artistry was TOP NOTCH. Thank you so much for creating this beautiful collection and sharing it with us!

Once you are done with the downstairs, there's not much on the upstairs except for an art center and a few other minor things from his collections. I wish they would expand it at some point, or if there was some sort of discount or benefit for someone else who doesn't bank with Bank of America. Something that keeps the admission price lower.

I've been to the RAM many times and it's a small art museum in Downtown Riverside. The Cheech…read moreMuseum is one stop light up and a larger museum. If you purchase a ticket to the Cheech, the RAM is included in your ticket price, or if you start at the RAM, the Cheech will be included that day. I came to the RAM this time around, specifically, for the 60 Miles East exhibit. This exhibit ends on 4/12, so make sure to swing by before then if you want to catch it. The exhibit contained many flyers, pictures, art, and even ticket stubs that brought me back to my childhood. It was in a clean and open space that made the experience enjoyable. This exhibit takes up only one room and there are other spaces to check out for additional art exhibits. I did notice less art, this time around, than in previous visits and many open spaces/walls were not taken up. Overall, I'm glad I got to enjoy this exhibit, before it ends, and it really highlights the Inland Empire's music scene as an important piece of diverse culture. Enjoy!

Located on the corner of Mission and Lime, I'd passed the Riverside Art Museum so many times but…read morenever actually went inside. I was usually heading next door to the RMA for a concert. But when they announced the 60 Miles East Punk Rock in Riverside exhibition, I knew I wasn't going to miss it. The Riverside Art Museum was originally built in 1929 as a YWCA before being bought and turned into what it is now. You walk in and admission is right there. I went on Veterans Day so I got in free. Otherwise combo tickets that get you into the Cheech the same day cost $15.95. A good deal! The 60 Miles East exhibition is in a giant room filled with flyers, posters and clothing from bands and places all over the Inland Empire. It was super cool but made me a bit sad inside because I'd been to the Showcase Theatre on many occasions and still miss it. They also have art in another part of the gallery including a Shepard Fairley original. I wasn't expecting that! Overall the Riverside Art Museum is a place I'd for sure recommend. It's not real big but since you can go to the Cheech on the same day with your ticket, it's worth the admission cost. 60 Miles East runs to mid April so don't miss it! Support the arts!

I'm a male actor from the republic of South Africa. I moved to the USA just more than 3 years ago…read more I decided to join an acting class in Riverside to freshen up my acting skills here in the USA and to get used to acting with actors from the USA. Jordan Lund guided me and he taught me new acting techniques that I've never though of. Because of the techniques and skills I got from Jordan I've now landed a lead role in an upcoming Netflix series to be aired next year. I highly recommend Jordan to any actor. Doesn't matter if you've been acting for years as I did or if you're new to the industry. You will learn new techniques and the fact that he puts you on camera so you can be analyzed is an amazing learning experience. I also do know that Jordan teaches stage acting too. Riverside Film Acting Class was a good choice for me. Etienne Müller

The inland empire is so blessed to have this studio. Mr…read more Lund regularly challenges his students and knows his craft. He's also very personable and fosters your growth as an actor. Every class is recorded so you can review your progress and skills you need to work on. The classes are incredibly diverse, having a wonderful range of cultures and age groups, making everyone feel welcomed. He's only as serious as you are, so if you want to dive deep into acting, he will provide you with acting scuba gear! If you have a passion for the art, stop your search right now and look no further.

DO NOT BOOK WITH ELVIA AND JUDY! THEY WILL RUIN YOUR DAY! THEY ARE SHADY AF!…read more First off, let me clarify that 365 events is NOT affiliated with The Life Arts Center. They operate independently and do not own the building. I was actually on a tour of Life Arts Center when Elvia approached me, claiming she could offer me a better deal. That should have been my first red flag that she was trying to poach me from someone else. I gave her a call, and we decided to visit the venue. When we arrived for the tour, Judy approached us and offered me a significantly higher price, almost $5000 more than Elvia had quoted. I informed her that this was not what I had been told. She apologized and claimed she had confused me with someone else. My fiancé and I expressed our interest in a specific date, which she confirmed was available. She promised to do everything in her power to make our dream reception come true, from setting up the venue to arranging every detail and being a coordinator. She even assured us that she would be present every minute of the day. Before booking I had made numerous phone calls and text messages to Elvia, inquiring about the availability of the same date. Every single call and text message, Elvia was able to confirm the date. The week that I had my appointment to go book my church, I talked to her every day and confirm that date we wanted was still available. The day that we had our church appointment, I had five phone conversations with Elvia . I let her know we were on the way to the church and once we were done, I would give her a call so we can go sign the contract. After I booked my church, I gave her a call and told her we were heading over to sign. The contract date was still available. When we arrive, Elvia was not there. Judy was there. My first question was if our date was still available she told me yes. I am a type A bride so I had every single question answered before we signed this contract. Headed over booked our date, sign our contract and she took our deposit. We were both an ecstatic that we had finally after a long process and touring many venues which had the date we wanted booked. We had finally found the one and had signed our contract and put our deposit down. Fast-forward to 2 1/2 weeks later, I am at work and I get a voicemail from Judy calling me by another name. I called her back to see if she meant to call me or if it was a mistake. She told me that she meant to call me. This is when it all fell apart. At this point, she proceeds to tell me that they have double booked my date for my reception. That they can go ahead and move my reception to another day?? Excuse me?? You want me to get marry at my church one day and weeks later come and tell my family and friends to come for my reception? I couldn't believe this happening! How do you double booked after almost 20 phone calls and text messages and us signing a contract. She claimed that somebody was going over the paperwork and they realized they had double booked. How do you to tell me you sign a legally binding contract without checking if the date was still available after almost 8 phone calls the same day and me telling you, I am coming over to sign the contract for that date. You mean to tell me nobody could bother to see if it was still available ? A no point in time did anybody tell me that it was booked or that anyone had inquired for that date actually I was told they had the whole month I was inquiring about empty. At this point, I was in tears at work because I cannot believe the unprofessionalism from both of them. I told them that now I have to leave work to go deal with this and I needed my deposit back. So, not only was I left with not Venue, I had to miss the whole day of work since this was around 9 am. I left work to go get my deposit back when I showed up Judy nor Elvia had the audacity to face me or my fiancé to apologize to us instead Judy sent her husband to give me back my deposit check. He was so nervous because they knew what they did was wrong and we have the right to sue them for breach of contract. He then tried to get me to still book with them at another venue and that they would give me extra items . At this point, I had no trust in them and felt scammed. I could not believe what they had done, to the most important day of my life. I left and took that check straight to the bank because I was afraid that it would bounce. I really think that they just needed my money or I they did give my day to somebody else for a higher price and then called me and told me they double booked. These people are shady.. It wasn't after this that I found out they they don't own the property which she claimed she did. And that this is not the first time they have called people and told them that they double booked their date. On top of that they have a reputation of going around and stealing customers from other people. Be warned! Don't book with ELVIA OR JUDY!
