This store was neat. They had new and old themed toys (The Simpsons, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and other characters Im not familiar with but were cool.) Its a very limited selection, and the prices were pretty reasonable.

Super cool place, went here on a date during one if the art walks. Spent a good bit if time in here checking out all the stalls. Wish I had more money to buy their stuff as it was all really good. When I go back to LA Ill definitely visit here again.

My favorite LA gallery! Nathan King Bee has done an amazing job keeping this place going in its very unique spirit for so long. There is always something interesting and new moving through this place, and Ive been turned on to some of my now-favorite artists because of shows there. Eclectic and accessible.

Ive been to Corporation Food Hall but never knew the existence of The Hive Gallery until I saw an Instagram posting of Happening in Dtla regarding the ongoing exhibit so I went one weekday to check it out.When I found the place, it was kind of dim and quiet. I had to double check the hours posted by the door. I peeked through the glass door and saw someone inside so I decided to come in. That person was actually Marcel (or Mancel), one of the artists with one of the stalls in the gallery.I had the gallery all by myself on the day of my visit so I freely roamed inside. I was very much surprised of the size of the gallery and how much art pieces were in there. The gallery looks small outside because of the narrow size but it goes on and on inside. I was impressed with all the unique talents these artists have. I had to tour the place twice to capture all the artworks here.I learned that the ongoing exhibit on my visit was almost ending which explains why the place is empty. I learned that exhibits change every month and from what I learned from other reviewers, this place gets really packed during opening days to meet the artists in person. I highly recommend this place you are into museums and galleries. Entrance is free.

This is definitely a spot to visit if ever in LA. Its a great art gallery where local artist are able to show off their skills in the heart of downtown. The gallery itself will surprise you based on its size. It has three sections (Featured Artist, Group Artwork, and Resident Artist) which allows them to display a impressive amount of work. With there shows changing fairly frequently, its a gallery youll wanna visit and keep on visiting. (And the fact that theres a ramen spot across the street is definitely a plus lol)

Fun, cool and uninhibited art. Awesome vibe and friendly people. Eclectic art pieces and got to meet almost all the artists there. This place must be visited soon. Cover charge to get in but well worth the money.

If you cant find anything interesting with 3,000 square feet of wall to wall artwork then you need to reevaluate your life. There is a new theme show every single month for the past 13 years. That sounds like a lot of dedication and hard work.Pros: Restrooms, friendly staff, cheap and affordable artwork for gift giving, and high end art for collecting.Cons: Some artist spaces havent been updated for years.

An amazing and important piece of Los Angeles arts landscape, this small local gallery specializes in darker pop-surrealism. The community it fosters also offers local gatherings, classes, and the occasional event in this space.

Possibly the best Gallery in LA; With a featured show in front, a group show further in, as well as a labyrinth of exhibits of exciting resident artists. Perhaps I am biased because I gave a space there, I dunno.
