Explore, play, and wonder at gigantic, fantastical, artworks at Inflatable a new exhibition at the Exploratorium. Born out of thin air, these dynamic sculptures include otherworldly organisms, a “forest” of cushiony columns, an inflatable “insect-eye” room, and more.

Curated by Christopher Jobson, founder and editor-in-chief of Colossal, Inflatable features artwork by, Amanda Parer, Jason Hackenwerth, Jimmy Kuehnle, Shih Chieh Huang, and Pneuhaus. Entry to Inflatable is included with museum admission.

Rated the #1 Museum in San Francisco on TripAdvisor, the Exploratorium is more than a museum; it’s an ongoing exploration of science, art, and human perception. Step inside a tornado, turn upside down in a giant curved mirror, walk on a fog bridge, and explore more than 650 hands-on exhibits. You’ll find all of this plus unique programs, discussions, and events; a café and restaurant; two stores; and more at Exploratorium’s beautiful San Francisco bayside location on the historic Embarcadero.

  • Daily Summer Hours (May 26–September 3), 10am–5pm (All ages)
  • Thursday Evenings, 6–10pm (Ages 18+)
  • Friday Evening Extended Hours (July 6–August 31), 10am–9pm (All Ages)

Our location provides stunning views of downtown and the San Francisco Bay. Located between the historic Ferry Building and Pier 39, we are a short distance from any of these popular attractions: Fisherman’s Wharf, the Alcatraz ferries, and AT&T Park.
