When
the weather is not the greatest……visit a museum!
This
time of year is perfect for indoor activities like visiting a museum. A day at a museum will be educational and
enjoyable for all family members.
Museums
serve as keepers of our cultural history.
They preserve the memories of different cultures and individuals, their
handmade objects, art works and historical documents. Exhibits help us learn about our past, understand the present and
gives us insight to the future.
Whether
you and your children are interested in art, music, history, natural history,
science, technology, or specific areas such as sports, jewelry, dolls or flight
there is a museum in the greater Seattle area for you.
Don’t
forget the numerous art galleries throughout the city. They are great places to see the world
through the eyes of various artists.
Local galleries display paintings, sculptures, glass works. Some may provide demonstrations and/or
classes. You might even meet the
artists themselves!
Contact
some of our local museums and sign up for their mailing lists. You must might find a few exhibits for the
entire family to enjoy.
Have
a Good Weekend!
