A free, drop-in in-gallery craft at the Truhlsen-Marmor Museum of the Eye, the world's only free public museum dedicated to the science of sight: learn the history and meaning of the Ojo de Dios ('God's Eye'), a woven yarn ritual object from the Indigenous Huichol people of Mexico, then make your own to take home or add to the gallery's community tree.
Good to know
- New lead found via a general web-search discovery pass, scheduled sweep 2026-10-21; not previously in activities.js -- confirmed via grep for 'museum of the eye' / 'truhlsen' / 'ojo de dios'.
- sourceUrl is the museum's own official events page (aao.org/museum-events, run by the American Academy of Ophthalmology, not an aggregator); hours corroborated on the museum's own aao.org/museum/visit page. Direct WebFetch to aao.org was not attempted this session; both pages were reached via search results directly quoting their content.
- The museum lists this specific craft as an ongoing in-gallery activity available whenever the museum is open (Wed-Sun), not a single dated workshop -- distinct from a separately-advertised 'Craft & Learn: Ojo de Dios' RSVP session seen on sf.funcheap.com for Sat 10/24 & 10/31/2026, which looks like a specially-promoted instance of this same standing activity rather than a different program; not double-counted.
- Museum is closed July 4th, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Day.
