SFChronicle and SFGate Announce Zeum as one of Top 3 BEST Destinations for Family Fun!



Here's what our voters said about us:

Great Place and Great Staff
My 10 year old son loves this place, as do I. The activities are unique (making animated movies, mixing music tracks, etc), and the staff are always really helpful and friendly. I highly recommend it.

The Best Place for Children to Learn!!!
I'm a 5th/6th grade teacher in the Fremont Unified School District. I've taken my students to Zeum every year and it keeps getting better and better! My kids look forward to it every year. They create news broadcasts from reading themes and have also made clay animations based on reading themes. The amount of enthusiasm is amazing! They work together in teams and have the opportunity to create something they are passionate about and can't wait to share with the rest of the class. The Zeum is the best place for students and or families to learn: to work together as a team, to be creative together, to face challenges and resolve them, to learn how to meet deadlines, and to be proud of work produced as a team verses an individual. Truly, you must experience it yourself! I'm going in May!!!

Great Fun at a Great Value
Zeum is one of those extremely fun yet relaxing places where I can hang with my entire family. We actually play together, making family movies. And the park, bowling alley and ice skating nearby make it ideal for any type of day. Super affordable too.

From Parents


"I like the fact that the teenagers themselves actually run the exhibits / studios."

"Your staff is great—their excitement rubs off."

"The helpful staff is what makes it all work. Without exception, every staff person we encountered was committed and patient."

"What an awesome place to bring children of all ages... we brought five of our six ages ranging from 16 to 6. They all had a great time! Loved the maze game and making Frisbees!"

"I can't get the kids to leave..."

"My 11 year old refuses to go anyplace but here... thanks!"

"It is fun and reasonably priced for people of all ages!"

"This was fantastic. I got to relive my childhood with my son."

"This place is a great, inexpensive way to entertain kids (& be creative!) for an afternoon!"

 

From Teen ZeumMasters


"The primary reason that I've been working at Zeum is to gain experience working in the art fields that I enjoy. I can think of no other place that would let me play with multimedia and help visitors use it with such a great environment and some really cool hardware. While learning the ropes of multimedia and computer art, I'm also learning what it takes to teach and instruct people."

"I've been working here for a little more than a year and it has been amazing. The people that work here are great and are willing to help you out when you need it. My favorite thing about working here is the satisfaction I get from knowing that everything is working right and everyone is not worried about what might go wrong."

"In terms of knowledge, I have gained a lot in learning how to use the digital camera and the computer and its software. This will most definitely help me in any future jobs I have. Meeting and working [with] other interns has increased my understanding of how society works, [what it is like] working in groups, interacting among people, and problem-solving."

 

From Kids


"I love it. I wish I could live here!'

"Best museum I've been to in a long time!"

"This was the first time coming here. I can't believe I've never visited you guys before, the stuff is so helpful! Thanks sooo much for this great experience! I shall come back soon!"

"Oh my gosh! This place is SO COOL! I'm usually not into this stuff but I changed! I love this place!!! I can do so many activities. It is so fun. My parents were amazed at all the things I made (well me too). I love it."

"This is a fun place. I wish my Mom & Dad could have brought me here sooner."

"I loved this place. It was so fun. Maybe I don't live here but I would love to have this in my town. On a scale from 1-10 I give it a 10."

 

From Students


"Thank you for helping us with our clay figures. I learned that the smallest movements make the biggest difference. I also learned that time and patience is everything. It was so much fun!"

 

From Teachers


"This was an AWESOME field trip for my students. The kids had so much fun. Creativity was fostered. Each and every child experienced success. Students who struggle academically and/or socially had an especially good time. It was nothing short of magic. These kids will never forget this."
