8. Museum of Craft and Folk Art

SOMA.   Seeking to elucidate the relationships between experience and craft and between culture and folk art, this fascinating museum explores relevant connections in a variety of exhibits. Traditional and contemporary items are displayed, representing domestic and international populations. Past exhibits have focused on African-American quilts, Scandinavian modernists as inspiration for contemporary California design, puppets from around the world, woven silks of Laos, water spirits in folk art and legend, and items created by detainees in America's Japanese internment camps. Admission is free to everyone on the first Tuesday of each month.   (© 10Best)
