de Young Museum

The de Young Museum is located at 50 Hagiwara Tea Garden Drive, San Francisco, CA. The museum was originally founded in 1895 and reopened in a new building designed by architects Herzog & de Meuron in 2005. The museum’s collection spans American art from the 17th through the 21st Centuries, with notable works by artists such as John Singer Sargent, Grant Wood and Georgia O’Keeffe. The museum also has significant collections of African art, Oceanic art and textiles and has hosted major exhibitions, including “Frida Kahlo: Appearances Can Be Deceiving” and “Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power.” Through the year, the museum offers various educational programs, artist talks and family-friendly activities, providing rich opportunities for community engagement and cultural enrichment.

NAMIE, FUKUSHIMA PREFECTURE - FEBRUARY 27: Police sergeant Yabuki Koshin and Constable Kanno Tomoyasu walk the grounds of Obori Kindergarten whilst on patrol within the 20km exclusion zone around Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, on February 27, 2012 in Namie, Fukushima prefecture, Japan. Police patrol the evacuated 20km exclusion zone, which is in force around the stricken Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, and which encompasses six towns and two villages, looking for any signs of burglaries or crime in the now uninhabited zone. The exclusion zone used to be home to approximately 73,000 people but all have been evacuated by the government and are now restricted from returning home due to high levels of radioactive contamination from the explosions at the TEPCO owned Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant following the earthquake and tsunami of March 11 2011.
