This event will be conducted in-person.
Today Mechanics’ Institute continues as a membership organization boasting a fantastic general interest library, an active calendar of cultural events, and a world renowned chess club. It is a favorite of avid readers, writers, downtown employees, students, film lovers, chess players, and the 21st century nomadic worker in search of a place for literary pursuits, thinking, research, and study.
If you are a new, long-time, or prospective member, the tour of the Institute will orient you to our building, include an overview of our history and mission, and outline our current services and the benefits of membership. Tours typically take 45 to 60 minutes.
Please email [email protected] or call 415-857-6727 if you have any questions.
