SFMOMA is one of the largest modern and contemporary art museums in the country, expanded by a soaring Snohetta addition to seven floors of galleries strong in painting, photography and design, anchored by the Fisher Collection. A living plant wall and several ground-floor gallery spaces can be seen for free without a ticket. Full admission is among the priciest in the city, so allow a half day to make it worthwhile and consider timed entry on busy weekends.
