Our exhibits inspire families to imagine, create, and share.

Designed to spark the imagination and build creative confidence,  families create unique media projects and experiences that reflect and celebrate their creativity with every visit.

All exhibits are facilitated by skilled artists and educators who are available to help guide you and your family through the creative process. 

First Floor

About the Exhibition

The next big thinkers will come from different  backgrounds, beliefs, abilities, and cultures. We need everyone on board to design for what the world needs next. 

And the future needs YOU! Only you have your unique perspective for what’s to come.

FutureBuilders invites you try:

  • Mystery Box Challenge! A prototype is a first model of an invention that lets you test out your design. Now you’re the inventor - grab a Mystery Box and a challenge card and start innovating.

  • Build The Change How can we make San Francisco more welcoming? More accessible? More friendly for the planet? Use LEGO bricks to design a San Francisco for the future.
  • Emoji Making Interact with emojis in new ways by designing new emojis, mixing and matching existing emoji elements, and interpreting famous works of art using only emojis.
     
  • ReInventions No invention is ever completely brand new. Take inspiration from current inventions to innovate and design the next (better!) version.

  • Weaving Wall Weaving has been used to create shelters, clothing, and even tell stories. Use colorful fabric and your imagination to add to our community weaving.
  • And more! Interactive Magna Tile walls, and DIY craft stations.
