East Bay jewel
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/06/2005
The Magnes is a far-too-often under-appreciated resource for art and culture in Berkeley. They've fully revitalized an over-forty-year old Museum and taken it to a whole other level. It's an absolute must-see for anyoner already in the Bay Area, and something every tourist should consider taking the time to find.
