Five Things to Do at SFMOMA

Floor 3

Since the beginning of his career, the photographer Dawoud Bey has used his camera to depict communities and histories that have largely remained underrepresented or even unseen. This full-scale retrospective highlights the artist’s commitment over the course of his four-decade career to portraying the black subject and African-American history in a manner that is at once direct and poetic, and immediate and symbolic.

In Situ, Floor 1
Sightglass, Floors 2 + 3
Cafe 5, Floor 5

From family-friendly California-fusion fare at Cafe 5 to Michelin-star dining at In Situ, there are options for anyone looking to fuel up during their visit. In the mood for something lighter? Sightglass has two locations now featuring tasty and Instagram-worthy coffee creations and treats—on Floor 3 and in our free public space (museum admission is not required).

Floor 1, Roberts Family Gallery

Celebrate our extraordinary, unique, and diverse city in The Chronicles of San Francisco, by internationally known artist JR. Presented in SFMOMA’s soaring Roberts Family Gallery, this digital mural scrolls across a bank of screens and brings together the faces and stories of people we encounter every day. This work is free and accessible to the public.

Floors 1 + 2

Take a piece of the museum home with you! Curated as carefully as our exhibitions, the Museum Store has an amazing collection of books, home goods, jewelry, toys, and more — it’s the perfect one-stop shop. The best part: every purchase supports SFMOMA’s exhibitions and education programs.

Floor 3

Step outside for a little fresh air and take in over 19,000 plants on our thirty-foot-tall Living Wall. As the largest living wall in the United States, it’s a beautiful backdrop for the sculptures nearby ― and for your own photo op.
