SFMOMA “Topping Out” Building Celebration | SF

Submitted by the Event Organizer

The steel outline of SFMoMa’s building expansion has reached ever greater heights in recent months, and now it’s time to celebrate.

Although the new project won’t be completed until 2016, join museum and community leaders, friends, and neighbors to see the highest beam lifted into place on their expanded building, and cheer this major milestone with music, food, and festivities.
