Even if your squad isn’t artsy, you’ll still find plenty to get excited about while roaming through the rotating special exhibitions. But the real draw for any bride crew at Bowers? The museum’s Mission Grill which pairs their robust collection of artifacts with creative cocktails and SoCal-fresh flavors.
