Saturdays at SAM

At Seattle Art Museum

Downtown Seattle, Seattle

"a wave of fifty or more kids running through"
"unexpected pairings that reward slow looking"
Parking validation available, a downtown rarity

One Saturday a month, SAM throws open its doors for free: live performances, hands-on art making, and tours winding through the galleries. Drop in, bring the kids, stay as long as you like.

Saturday, December 5, 12:00 PM
