Oakland Museum of California

Included general admission with the Go San Francisco Card

The Oakland Museum of California (OMCA) is one of the world’s finest regional museums and the only one devoted entirely to the art, history, and natural sciences of California. Located in sunny Oakland, 20 minutes from downtown San Francisco, the Museum presents state-of-the-art exhibitions and educational programs. Founded in 1969, the Oakland Museum of California has distinguished itself as a significant community resource and progressive leader in educational and interpretive activities in the region. Housed in an innovative three-tiered complex of galleries and gardens, the Museum’s vast collections, special exhibitions, and annual fairs and festivals attract visitors from around the world. Visitor highlights include paintings from the Bay Area Figurative School, a self-guided “Walk Across America,” and the largest collection of African American Art west of Chicago.
