SeeCalifornia has attended this event and it's really a great opportunity to see the history in L.A. that many of us miss or don't know about. Among the values on this special one-day May annual event is free admission and a tour inside the Gamble House which normally charges a fee. Tip: If you get hung up like we did having fun at a museum or two, then you'll miss seeing all the museums on the tour, buses that loop around are available free.
