With 63,000 square feet of lively and diverse Jewish artwork in an eye-popping 2008 building, the CJM lives up to it's namesake and then some.
There is no permanent collection... check the exhibitions link or roll the dice :)
Between the CJM, MOMA, and Zeum - Yerba Buena Gardens defines the center of contemporary, modern, and freshly created art in San Francisco.
The Cartoon Art Museum is another half block down Mission past 3rd st.
