Listen to Live Music at the Seattle Symphony

Home to more than 200 performances throughout the year, the Seattle Symphony is a great place to get in touch with your musical side. Featuring guest performances by George Winston and John Williams, a night here will leave you feeling enchanted. While ticket prices range depending upon the concert, there is the option of attending a free concert for the 2017-2018 season. The Seattle Symphony will perform seven free concerts at different places throughout the community, which is just another reason why we love Seattle's art and cultural scene.

Take a Step Back in Time at the Seattle Art Museum (SAM)

Did you know that this museum is home to 25,000 works of art? And that's just one reason why we recommend you go here. Exploring the SAM will lead visitors to view works by award-winning artists. While the collections and exhibits are always on rotation, when you visit the SAM you'll be met with jaw-dropping works of art that range from historical to classical to modern. Located in downtown, just a few blocks from the waterfront, we urge you to walk along the water either before or after your trip to the SAM.
