Invented in San Francisco Walking Tour: Pay-what-you-can First Friday

Science and creativity in the city of innovation

Folding fortune cookies, which were invented in San Francisco

San Francisco's creative nature inspired innovation long before the silicon chip: Some of the world's most influential inventions were dreamed up by San Franciscan tinkerers. On this tour, we explore seven surprising stories of innovation that exemplify San Francisco as a hotbed of creative thinking for nearly two centuries. We'll investigate the science behind some of these inventions, discuss how the nature of what we patent has evolved over time, and explore our own ability to think outside the box.

2.3 miles, moderate with 1 challenging uphill, 2.5 hours
