Pier 17

United States

The Exploratorium is a museum of science, technology, and arts in San Francisco, California. Founded by physicist and educator Frank Oppenheimer in 1969, the museum was originally in the Palace of Fine Arts where it founded Pi Day in 1988. The museum relocated in 2013 to Piers 15 and 17 on San Francisco's waterfront. The museum has over 1,000 participatory exhibits divided into several galleries, mainly separated by content. Since its inception, the Exploratorium has expanded into other domains and has inspired more museums to adopt hands-on learning-by-doing exhibits.
