Learn More About the Exhibits at the Autodesk Gallery in San Francisco

The Autodesk Gallery at One Market in San Francisco celebrates design — the process of taking a great idea and turning it into a reality. With about 60 different exhibits regularly on display that showcase the innovative work of Autodesk customers, the gallery illustrates the role technology plays in great design and engineering. I am one of about 80 Autodesk employees who volunteer as ambassadors for the gallery. Years ago, Gallery Curator, Jason Medal-Katz, chose the title ambassador instead of docent because the correct way to address an ambassador is "your excellency," yet this never happens. Ambassadors conduct gallery tours as a sideline to their day jobs. The tours provide employees with opportunities to practice public speaking in front of small groups.

Exhibits come and go in the gallery. This lets us showcase the latest in technology as well as keep it fresh for repeat visitors. I have blogged about exhibits over the years. I wondered "Of the existing gallery exhibits, how many have I blogged about already?" So I put together a list. You can use this list to read about exhibits that might interest you. For ones without blog articles, perhaps their titles alone will entice you to visit?

Autodesk has always been an automation company, and today more than ever that means helping people make more things, better things, with less; more and better in terms of increasing efficiency, performance, quality, and innovation; less in terms of time, resources, and negative impacts (e.g., social, environmental). The exhibits in the gallery highlight the successes our customers have had in this regard.
