San Francisco | Hidden fun stuff in the Asian Art Museum vol.1

My favorite museum to roam around in SF is the SFMOMA, but seldom do I visit the Asian Art Museum. It always feels a bit serious, seeing so many artifacts here that originally shouldn't be. It gives me mixed feelings. However, a friend who was visiting SF highly recommended the Asian Art Museum 🖼️. After one visit, I found worthwhile pieces of art indeed. Afterward, I started volunteering there occasionally. 🌟 Wanna share a fun activity. It could make the museum experience more interesting for both kids and adults, and spark everyone's curiosity. Head to the information desk/coat check and ask for the 👇 "Art Explorer Cards". These are available in both English and Chinese. Follow the cards to locate specific pieces of art in the museum. Use your imagination to interact with the art in unexpected ways 💯. 👋 At the end of your visit, kids can get a souvenir at the info desk. Inside the bag are cool items like notebooks, colored pencils, coloring cards, and more featuring the museum's mascot, Reina. *️⃣ The first Sunday of every month features a Storytelling Tour. 👶11am for pre-K audiences, and 🧒1pm for all ages. Spend weekends at the museum. Foster your artistic sense and let your imagination run wild 💭. P.S. There's also a set of jade artifact cards. Ask if you're interested. 📍Asian Art Museum, 200 Larkin St, San Francisco 🅿️ Parking Info: Weekdays + Saturdays at the Civic Center Public Garage, Sundays at the UC Law SF Parking with a flat #AsianArtMuseum #HiddenGems #ArtExplorerCards #MuseumFun #ImaginationUnleashed #SundayStorytelling #JadeArtifacts #SanFrancisco
