"ACME Gallery, Miracle Mile. The staff at ACME hopes visitors won’t be intimidated. “Don’t be afraid to poke your head in,” says co-founder Randy Sommer, joking that he’s the Walmart greeter. Conversation is favored over shushing, and educational groups come through regularly. With the icy gallery myth shattered, students often return on their own. ACME got its start in 1994 supporting young and unrepresented artists — many of whom are now well known. Consider the ice broken, and come poke your head in."
