The Seattle Art Museum is celebrating its 90th birfday and you can help wish them best wishes at their end of summer SAM Remix event happening Friday, August 25th at the gorgeous Olympic Sculpture Park overlooking Elliott Bay!
It’s a 21+ event so the kids can’t come but for adults, it’s a lovely way to appreciate SAM and its mission (and its art) with an array of tech installations, pop up performances, interactive things to do and lovely drinks and nibbles. Despite it being an anniversary year, SAM is looking towards the future so they encourage everyone to think “futuristic” party fashion for your attire!
