Event Details

San Francisco Eats showcases the culinary delights that can be found in the San Francisco Public Library’s collections dating back to the late 19th century and will serve as a visual feast for visitors of all ages. From the Gold Rush to Slow Food, San Francisco has never stopped being a beacon of gastronomic delight.

This exhibition includes menus, historical photographs, an array of food writers, cookbooks and culinary history, ephemera such as coasters and matchbooks, and San Francisco food inventions, including gadgets and signature dishes.

The Jewett Gallery is a 1,500 square foot enclosed gallery which hosts an active program of rotating special exhibitions. In addition to presenting exhibitions drawn from the Library’s collections, the Library sponsors exhibitions on loan from other institutions and organizations.

This gallery is located on the lower level of the main library.
