About
Asian Art Museum is a historic wedding venue located in San Francisco, California. Built in 1917, this stone beaux-arts structure used to function as the city’s main library. This impressive building is four stories high, with beautiful columns, stairs and inscriptions. Italian architect, Gae Aulenti, turned the library into the stunning museum it is today. Asian Art Museum offers couples multiple indoor venues for their unique celebration.
