It is open daily from 10am to 4:30pm except Saturday. Their collection is surprisingly extensive, though not all of it is on display.  It's worth stopping in if you're there when it's open.  Also, temporary rolling exhibitions exist security within the International Terminal as well as air-side Terminal 2 and 3. Public art from the San Francisco Arts Commission is on display throughout the terminals.
+In February 2019, an outdoor observation terrace opened atop Boarding Area G. It is airside, accessible to passengers flying out of that concourse as well as Terminal 3, which is connected airside. Passengers with a same day boarding pass should be able to access the terrace as well, though it will require clearing security a second time to reach the gate for the departing flight. Open daily from 7:00am to 11:30pm.
+===Terminal 2 Observation Deck===
+Scheduled to open in October 2019, this observation deck atop Terminal 2 will be landside and open to the public with no boarding pass required.
