The Seattle Art Museum’s hellaciously popular Remix quarterly party returns at the end of the month and it’s a party for EVERYONE in the community. They always manage to mix it up and add various degrees of a queer vibe to the jam that encourages people to check out the museum…even if it takes drinks and a DJ to lure you in.
This quarter’s theme is IMPRINT to tie in with SAM’s just opened hot new show, Ikat: A World of Compelling Cloth, along with other exhibits like American Art: Stories We Carry, and more.
More from the p.r. invite:
SAM Remix returns to the Seattle Art Museum this spring! Since 2008, SAM has invited the best and brightest of Seattle’s creative community to produce one-of-a-kind art experiences at this signature nighttime program. This edition’s theme, Imprint, explores the influence artists have had on our world. Visitors will encounter innovative performances, art-making activities, live music, and guided gallery tours inspired by patterns, motifs, and images found across the museum’s global collections. The theme also extends to the overall aesthetic and approach of the event! Attendees are encouraged to showcase their own visual expression through their clothes, accessories, and whatever other ways art inspires them.
Remix is a 21+ event. Valid ID is required for entry.
There’s a lot of talent lined up for the March 31st party, including the presense of BIJOUX, the musical partnership of our own beloved chanteuse Adé and Jayson Kochan.
