Seattle Art Museum
Multiple Locations, 206.654.3100
In case you hadn't heard yet, be aware that the programming for SAM and its spawn (the Seattle Asian Art Museum, the Olympic Sculpture Park, and the SAM Sales and Rental Gallery) will be impacted by construction over the course of the next two years. Be on the lookout for temporary closures in and of SAM (for expansion), the temporary split of SAAM (to accommodate both collections), the opening of the sculpture park, the grand reopening of SAM, the temporary closure of SAAM (for infrastructure updates), and the subsequent reopening of SAAM. In between there will still be a lot of groovy stuff to experience, but it's all gotten too complex for us to cover in detail at this time. Please see the website for the current lowdown.

It's also an excellent landing pad after First Thursday excursions.
