Don't waste your time and money
We've been all over to see art museums from LA to Paris. This place the employees were rude, the art was just sad, and the visit was a huge disappointment. Go to the De Young Museum in Golden Gate Park. You'll be much happier.

not a student-friendly museum.
The staff from the SF MoMa are very unfriendly and mean, especially if you're a student getting a discounted ticket. The information desk is not very helpful. The receptionist was very lazy, and seemed like she did not want to do her job at all, as if it was an inconvenience for her to help customers. The security people are also gawking at your every move, and will try to find the least possible reason to yell at you and to embarrass you in front of everyone, just from taking a flash-free picture. The camera I used to take a picture was not even a real camera, it was a tiny cell phone. I was only admiring a painting that inspired me. I wanted to have a glimpse of it, in case it influences me in my own artistic development (as an aspiring painter myself). It seemed funny to me, how so many people were carrying actual cameras, with zooming lenses, and they were ignored by the security. And I was holding a mere, tiny cell phone, to take a very tiny picture, and I was purposely embarrassed by the security lady. It felt as if discrimination towards students is an acceptable practice in this museum. I wish I had never gone there, and that I had not thought of actually exposing myself to this museum for potential inspiration for my own art practice. I regret going to this place. I should not have to pay only to get yelled at, and to be embarrassed in front of everyone. One helpful tip, do not even make eye contact with the security because they will glare at you for even being there.
