SFMOMA

The definitive destination for modern art in San Francisco, SFMOMA is conveniently located downtown near the convention centers, parks and shopping malls. SFMOMA is a landmark building that is currently in an expansion project that will make its presence in the city skyline even more impressive. This museum was the first of its kind on the west coast, and exhibits the work of modern masters and unknown artists alike.

SFMOMA's galleries are home to a varied mix of multimedia that champions works created in the last half-century, and many relate to pop culture, making this a good way to introduce yourself or someone you know to the art world for the first time. The roof here features a beautiful sculpture garden to rest in after touring the gallery.
