Zeum Theater

Zeum is a non-profit multimedia and technology museum with a mission to provide multimedia tools for families of all communities to think and act creatively. By providing hands-on experiences in four core creative processes (animation, sound and video production, live performance and visual arts), we encourage youth to share their stories, build their voices, and use multimedia tools for creative self-expression.

Zeum opened in October 1998 on the rooftop of Yerba Buena Gardens as part of a major 87-acre urban renewal project in the South of Market area by the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency. Our unique 34,000 square-foot facility—designed by internationally acclaimed architect Adele Naude Santos—includes premier technology studios, interactive activity stations, exhibit galleries, community exhibit space, and a 200-seat theater. Each year, we reach over 250,000 youth, families, teachers, schools and community-based organizations through general admission, school field trips, camps, workshops, initiatives and free family-oriented public events.
