Ruth Asawa Retrospective [members and +1s]

​Join Me at SFMOMA: Ruth Asawa Retrospective

​You're invited to a Commons group visit to the Ruth Asawa: Retrospective at SFMOMA — the first major posthumous exhibition of one of the Bay Area’s most beloved and visionary artists.

​🌀 What to Expect

​This retrospective brings together over 300 works spanning six decades of Asawa’s career, from her signature looped-wire sculptures to rarely seen drawings, paintings, and clay pieces. There’s even a gallery designed to feel like her Noe Valley home — complete with her hand-carved redwood doors, sketchbooks, and personal collection.

​🗓 Date & Time

​Saturday, May 3 · 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM PT
Afterwards, we can grab coffee or lunch nearby if folks are up for it!

​📍 Location

​SFMOMA – 151 Third Street, San Francisco, CA 94103
Meet at the main lobby near the ticketing desk.

​🎟 Tickets

​I’m an SFMOMA member and can sort out guest tickets! Just RSVP here to reserve your spot, and I’ll handle the timed-entry tickets for the exhibition. If you're an existing member please let me know when you RSVP.
