San
Francisco Activities
The
Exploratorium - Housed within the walls of San
Francisco's Palace of Fine Arts, the Exploratorium is
a collage of over 650 science, art, and human perception
exhibits. The Exploratorium is a leader in the movement
to promote the museum as an educational center. This unique
museum was founded in 1969 by noted physicist and educator
Dr. Frank Oppenheimer, who was director until his death
in 1985.
San Francisco Ballet
- Founded in 1933, San Francisco Ballet has a long tradition
of artistic innovation and excellence. As Americas
first professional ballet company, the Company presented
the first full-length productions of both Nutcracker and
Swan Lake ever seen in the United States. Now, under the
artistic direction of Helgi Tomasson since 1985, San Francisco
Ballet continues to push boundaries with cutting-edge
new works by contemporary international artists, while
remaining committed to excellence in the classical tradition.
