Suggestions for Museum near Downtown San Francisco-Union Square, San Francisco

lydie t. • January 5, 2010Do not miss their exhibitions, they are always excellent. My children got mesmerized by their exhibition on traditional Jewish Plates. Who could have guessed?

Kendal C. • August 14, 2018A smaller, cool museum in SOMA. Exhibits change often so there's always something new to look forward to every couple months. They offer discounted admission for students.

Victoria S. • March 24, 2012Get the membership! Save money.

Adam • March 3, 2017The audio tour is really incredible and totally immersive. Join the wifi and download the free app. It's location based and adds so much extra context to the work you are viewing.

Devora Z. • July 15, 2017The princess cake is fantastic! Have it with an Arnold Palmer in the sun with a good friend 😊

Jonathan C. • June 10, 2015Love this place. My wife takes out daughter here all the time. Who says there aren't things for kids to do in the city?

Sabina B. • October 25, 2014Impressive collection of sketches by a range of great artists, particularly by the Impressionists. Go upstairs and to the back to check out their room of Picassos

Hard R. • July 28, 2019Definitely worth the extra fee.

Nathan S. • June 2, 2017It's great to be able to see operational aspects of the system rather than just static displays, though those are well done as well!

Erik C. • May 2, 2017Fun little place not much to it but it had an beer exhibit and let you draw your own beer label. It was entertaining. Great gift shop inside if your in the area should stop in
