Seattle Art Museum is the city’s go-to for big touring blockbuster exhibits featuring the likes of the indomitable Impressionists or Pop Art’s all-stars. SAM’s permanent collection is known for its impressive holdings by Native American artists among a smattering of other historical gems. Don’t miss the walk-in China Room on the top floor with mirrors covering every surface like a trippy mis en abyme filled with a cross section of history’s decorative dinnerware. Also keep your eyes peeled for Doug Aitken’s “MIRROR,” a giant, multi-panel video installation that streams on the outside of the museum building, continually changing in real time as it channels the recorded movements of the city around it.
