Destination: San Francisco - Curator Lecture and Exhibition Tour
Come join exhibition co-curators Samuel Scott and John King for and inside look at the new exhibition Destination: San Francisco. The marketing of San Francisco and the Bay Area as a world-famous tourist destination has strong historical links to the airline industry. Destination: San Francisco, developed in collaboration with local historian and former San Francisco Chronicle urban design critic, John King, as well as the San Francisco History Center at the San Francisco Public Library, shares key moments of this history though images, objects and ephemera going back over 85 years.
