The Cartoon Art Museum is an intimate, boutique museum in San Francisco with original cartoon art. Founded in 1984, the Cartoon Art Museum has something for everyone—from comic strips, comic books and anime to political cartoons, graphic novels and underground comix.
People of all ages can view original cartoon art at exhibitions and screenings, create their own comics and animation in workshops, research thousands of comics and books in the reading room, and mingle with professional and aspiring cartoonists.
It's more fun and interesting than I had expected. There is a wonderful library/reading room so allow enough time to enjoy it all. My grandson and I really liked it!
Aquarium of the Bay is located at San Francisco's popular PIER 39. Its focus, as the name suggests, is local aquatic animals from the San Francisco Bay (and nearby waterways). There are three main exhibit areas, each with a specific point of focus. The most thrilling is the underwater tunnel, though the touch pools and naturalist talks also help make this an exciting and interactive way to get to know the bay.
The Snøhetta expansion (completed in 2016) doubled the amount of exhibition space at the SFMOMA. The seven-story structure also expanded the gallery areas and outdoor public spaces, giving a big injection of destination architecture to San Francisco's South of Market area. The SFMOMA's permanent collection is a whopping 33,000 works, and there are always temporary exhibitions as well. When in San Francisco's SoMa make time for the SFMOMA.
Pearl Harbor is a lagoon harbor on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, west of Honolulu. It's been long visited by the Naval fleet of the United States, and it's the headquarters of the United States Pacific Fleet. This is the site of the attack on Pearl Harbor by the Empire of Japan on December 7, 1941, which was the immediate cause of the United States' entry into World War II.
