Excelent Art
The part I liked most about this museum are the hallways. There is always something to look at but even if your looking you aren't getting over stimulated.

Art's of the Great
This museum held one of the best selection's I've ever seen in 2005. Although I cannot find the sculpture of a Saint I would've liked to have seen Displayed here. Their 1300 Era collection is one that has got to be seen over and over! Stunning Display. Nice, Clean, Quiet place to enjoy arts of the past, and present. And I hear they have a new design in progress! This place is one to visit where ever you are from! and the Warhol pieces gave it a Modern Touch.

SAM under construction
While the downtown SAM is under construction and not open during same, the Volunteer Park SAAM (Seattle Asian Art Museum) is home to temporary exhibitions from SAAM permanent collection and the downtown SAM art glass collection. A sampler of high-tech mixed media installations are also present. A fine example of Art Deco/Depression Modern architecture, SAAM sits atop Capitol Hill area and commands a great view of lower Seattle harbor. Nearby Conservatory (glass & ironwork home of botanical exhibits and humming birds in flight) was unexpected bonus to the Museum trip. Great lawn and trees, Japanese lily pond surround the SAAM building. Recommended if you like great Asian antiquities and contemporary glass masterpieces.

Interesting and Educational
A must see for those of us who claim the pacific Northwest as our home. Parking is a bit of a problem, although we did get lucky and get a reasonable spot with-in a few blocks. The first couple of floors were nice; However, we should have went directly to the fourth floor, where the really interesting older art and paintings are displayed.

Ethnic Experience
I absolutely love to go to the Seattle Art Museum, they always have the most wonderful displays of art from around the world, and plus they honor the Native Cultures of North America as well. The last time I was there, I saw the most amazing African art display of masks, jewelry, and pictures of the people from the tribe in West Africa that loaned their pieces to be displayed by the Seattle Art Museum. There was even a speaker from the tribe as well. A wonderful place to learn about the people around us in the world, and in our own state.
