This highly underrated and below the radar, for many, museum, has an extensive collection of art from many periods and cultures. Exhibits ranging from the Persian empire, India and Pakistan to the far east are displayed across all three floors. I easily spent 2 hours in the wonderful, modern age extensive museum. Go on the 1st Sunday of each summer month and admission is free. It's well worth the price :-)!!

We attended the absolutely beautiful and mysterious "teamLab: continuity" and it was unforgettable. So easy at first sight, all these colors and music make this experience a true magic. I appreciate the Asian Art Museum team for helping me reschedule the visit and being so nice and patient. I would definitely give the 5 stars if the guard that made us leave the room at 4.57 was a little bit more polite. It's sad that sometimes a rude staff member can change the impression.

My favorite Asian Art Museum on the West Coast! We got free tickets from the San Mateo County Library that offered free passes through their Discover and Go system. This gave us access to the special teamLab exhibit, which was stunning, as well as the regular exhibits. A must when you’re in town!

A must go to. Beautifully displayed exhibits of ancient history in the heart of San Francisco. Stairs, elevators, escalators help make it easy to go to the three levels. Handicapped accessible. Restrooms on every floor. Gift shop and food on the first floor. They check for vaccinations. We came on First Sunday Free admission. You can get tickets online.

Can I pick up a wheelchair for myfriend to use while we visit the museum special exhibit of electronic art and mirrors Thursday at opening time?

Linda Elkind | Nov 22, 2021
Peggy Cleary | Nov 22, 2021

I'm not sure, but there were wheelchair users in the exhibit. There are also portable folding stools outside the entrances of most galleries for use by those who walk with difficulty or tire easily. Just pick one off the rack.

How is the Sculpture of Buddha's triumph over Mara preserved? How did the curators prep it for display? Was it repaired or altered before it was put on display?

naina sangwan | Aug 19, 2021
Keith Kingon | Aug 19, 2021

Its beautiful. I believe I was prepared and altered but not much was told about that Its more of a place to admire and feel the beauty of the art rather than learn

Adults are $25, children 12+ and Senior $20. Children under 12 are free. Special exhibit pricing varies and is an additional ticket.

If we have a family pass, my whole family can go for free right?

April Van Buskirk-Rader | Aug 20, 2019

It depends on the pass and where you originally purchased it. Normally they cover up to 4 adults and up to 4 kids. There should be a website on your pass that can give you more detailed info.
