A lot of interesting things to see as we waited our turn to enter. Some very clever and interesting objects, but definitely not cheap. Only sad part was not seeing more interesting puzzles sold.

Spent hours here with my 6yr old we both love art. They had a space exhibit while we were there and he was ALL about it.

A fairly large store with good collection of books, fashion accessories, clocks, watches, home goods, children toys, etc. all with modern design touches. Should budget at least 30 minutes during your visit to SFMOMA.

Saw the Magritte show. It was fantastic and the interactive art at the end was well done.

I had never had even the most minimal understanding of post war German artists such as Gerhard Richter. This exhibit is startling. They also have an artist,Anselm Kiefer Whose startling and dark work illuminated the pain of some Germans in the post war era.

Excellent selection of gifts but very pricey. They also have a (smaller) gift shop at the airport before going through security.

Visit the museum or not; the Store is a must visit; especially if your house can make use of some modern decor.Items are not even expensive.

The SFMoma Museum Store has some cool items that are perfect for gifting to art enthusiasts! I saw some really cute clocks for kids rooms, as well as art books, and architecture books. They also carry some socks that benefit various non-profits and different causes.

Its a tough act. Too many things there are simply gift shop level without being special compared to what is available so many other places (including of course, the web). On the other hand, it has both prowess and a huge advantage when it comes to giving you something you want to take home from the exhibit that you just saw, or naturally, from the permanent collection.

If you are looking for a unique​, art inspired gift, or collections of well documented images, especially regarding lesser known modern artists, there are plenty of great finds at the SFMOMA ART MUSEUM STORE. Dont just hurriedly browse over its offerings. Instead take time to linger and delve into the books and guides and gifts. You will find many treasures!

Great gift store for everything in the San Francisco museum of modern art and also other design and art items e.g. for electronics, cutlery, lamps, books and childrens toys, jewellery. Friendly staff that are able to help out and provide advice for a broad range of gifts. It also covers special gift items of special collections that are currently on exhibit in the museum.

Review №33

Lots of choices. There are two stores inside the museum with the biggest one at the ground floor. There was also a special store at the 4F with the special exhibition. Be sure to check that out as there are unique pieces you wont find in the main store. There are interesting pieces but also some curated pieces you can actually find elsewhere and cheaper so choose wisely what to buy.

Review №34

You can get some great photographs intje storeSome great books, too. They have reasonable prices. There some interesting, and usual books. Some of their merchandise is stylish, perhaps gift-oriented, and more expensive. Their merchandise is, sometimes, modern and technology, but interesting. Not as expensive as one mght think.

So many things to see, I spent almost 4 hours and would stay more, but I had to go out because the building was going to close. The library is open to visit, no ticket is needed - its small, but I saw a lot of interesting books. The store is also open to the public and I got crazy - incredible books and design products, I wanted it all.

Saw the Magritte exhibit at SFMOMA. It was terrific. Highly recommend.The new SFMOMA does not impress me. Hard to find bathrooms and wandered around looking for the cafe. The food was very good. Dont know what was spent on the new museum but I didnt think much of the architecture.

Review №38

More than just a gift shop. The Museum Store offers all the usual trinkets you expect to find in a gift shop but it doesnt stop there. Its a mini book store, with books about the artists you see in the museum, as well as books on architecture, color, shapes, and more. Boutique like jewelry is showcased. Along with the usual T-shirts and sweatshirts with the museum logo are high-end designer scarves . But I was most impressed by the tech wall. Something for every techie on this wall. Im not a techie so I wouldnt do it justice, youll have to see it for yourself. So even if you dont have time for the museum, take time to see its store. You wont be disappointed.

One of the biggest mueseum gift shops Ive been in. Lots of fun items, of course, all at inner city gift shop prices.Visiting the gift shop is free as it has its own entrance. The shop has lots of room which makes for nice browsing all of the goodies and unique merchandise.

A fun and quirky place to find a gift for that person who has everything. Although make sure the person youre buying for is a person of the arts. The stuff youll want to buy is out of many peoples budget, there are many items that accompany just about every age range.

This place has everything an artist could need! I have gone in there once to find some ink for my fountain pen and man did it take me forever to find it! I honestly did not know there were that many different tools and canvases available to artists.

MoMA is amazing. I enjoy the museum store every time I walk in here; sometimes without even going to the MoMA. Every time I walk in here, I find an amazing book or recommendation.

Review №60

The stuff here is colourful and has some interesting designs and you can easily kill 30 min or more perusing the various Knick knacks and trinkets. Most of it is outrageously overpriced made in China type plasticky stuff. I would have loved to pay those prices for locally or at least made in USA goods. Local artistes were well represented though, which was good. I came in looking for a gift after touring the museum but just could not bring myself to pay that much money for a tiny pin or a magnet. Saw a pretty canvas tote... USD $40?!! No thanks.

Review №83

The whole experience was bizarre. I couldnt tell where the exhibits were, let alone what they were meant to express. I saw a bunch of people standing in line, apparently buying tickets for something, but had no idea what for, and none were in the mood to explain it to me or let me line-jump to ask one of the people working there. I wouldve wandered around more, but I was afraid Id wander into the wrong area and be accused of trying to get into an exhibit without paying. Dadaism = 1, Me = 0.

This is a review of the store, not the museum. The museum itself gets 5 stars.The store has a great selection like you find in most good museum stores. I am downgrading this review because of the customer service. I pointed out that a Vasa sculpture I wanted to buy had subtle scratches on it - the only one they had left was the display model (which had been handled). The sales person agreed with me, but his supervisor did not. I was shocked about how rude she was, saying she could not see any scratches, locked the case up and refused to speak with me anymore on the issue.I recommend you buy items online that you see there and not at the store itself - Milwaukee’s online art museum has many of the same items SF MoMA has and their customer service online has been outstanding as well as their prices and selection.This supervisor needs new glasses and a course on customer etiquette - I’m disappointed that my 1st day of annual membership at SF MoMA ended with this experience.
