Museum Of Us

Formerly known as the San Diego Museum of Man, the Museum of Us is an anthropology museum with a mission to inspire human connections by exploring the human experience. Centered on core anthropological values such as compassion, sitting in generosity rather than judgment, and love for all humanity, the Museum of Us takes a different approach from the traditional authoritative “museum voice." The 501(c)(3) non-profit was founded in Balboa Park in 1915 and is located in the iconic California Building and Tower. Through original, interactive exhibits visitors discover what it means to be human - whether it's exploring how beer shaped civilizations, connecting with strangers over shared secrets, or discovering who cannibals really are (could you be one?).
