Pacific Standard Time is a collaboration of arts institutions across Southern California led by the Getty and made possible through Getty Foundation grants. The initiative has produced hundreds of linked art exhibitions, scholarly publications, and public programs, the majority of which have relied on grant-supported research and planning to come to fruition.

Pacific Standard Time: Art in L.A. 1945–1980
The first collaboration launched in fall 2011 and told the story of the birth of the Los Angeles art scene following World War II.
Pacific Standard Time Presents: Modern Architecture in L.A.
Held in 2013, this smaller-scale program celebrated twentieth-century architecture in the region.
Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA
The most recent collaboration opened in 2017 and presented Latin American and Latino art in dialogue with Los Angeles.
The Getty is exploring the next Pacific Standard Time and expects to announce it in 2019.
