The Grand Opening of SAM: The Seattle Art Museum
The Seattle Art Museum, SAM, will be celebrating it's Grand Opening May 5th & 6th. The museum has been closed for it's expansion, and is now almost ready for it's Grand Opening Debut next week. This has been a very busy year so far for SAM, because earlier this year in January the Museum celebrated the Grand Opening of it's new outdoor sculpture park in Belltown. The Olympic Sculpture Park opened during a sunny winter weekend with large crowds of Seattlites roaming the Park. 
SAM will be open for 35 straight hours beginning 10AM on Saturday May 5th until 11:59 PM on Sunday evening. There will be music, and other live entertainment for Art lovers and admission to the main museum will be free. The special exhibits in the Galleries will require entry tickets. Should be a fun adventure in Downtown Seattle so if you live in Seattle, come by!
Danny- Thanks for stopping by! I just the love the Visual Arts...and I'd like to learn more about the Performing Arts too. Having such a beautiful new place to display so much more of SAM's permanent (some of it new) Art Collections makes Seattle an even more wonderful place to live.
Luke - The Grand Opening last weekend was spectacular! I hope you get to visit someday...The Seattle Art Museum's Outdoor Olympic Sculpture Park is very close by and a wonderful place to enjoy views of the Sound, and Ferries crossing it.
