After three years of renovations, the Academy of Sciences has marched its extensive collection of penguins, fish, and other fauna into its brand-new Golden Gate Park exhibition space, which boasts an aquarium, planetarium, and natural-history museum all housed under one living roof. The weekend-long party includes plenty of green performances and environmentally sustainable activities both inside and outside the new building. On Saturday, the Sippy Cups rock some kid-friendly pop, and Mobile Climb offers outdoor climbing walls, while admission to the Academy is free for all. Sunday visitors can check out performances by the SF Opera and ODC Dance Company as well as the museum's extensive collections.
