CLOSED: San Francisco Museum of Craft & Design

In 2004, the San Francisco Museum of Craft+Design opened its doors as an unconventional start-up museum with an eye on exhibiting, interpreting and communicating contemporary work in craft and design. Our goal is simple: to encourage the appreciation and the understanding of craft and design, as well as to acknowledge their strong connections to each other. Pushing traditional boundaries between these disciplines allows us to experiment at the edge of what is possible in offering innovative exhibitions, installations, and related educational programming for the local community, visitors to the area and museum members, including children, teens and seniors.
