Teen Workshops

SAM Teen Workshops are all about local teens making their own visual culture. Participants work one-on-one with local artists on 2-D, 3-D and digital projects.

ARTattack: Teen Night Out

This FREE showstopping night comes equipped with DJs, teen art tours and drop-in art activities led by Seattle’s hottest contemporary artists. The galleries are yours too! Teens pay no admission to see works in the SAM's permanent collection and special exhibition galleries. If you want to plan ARTattack, think about joining TAG, the Teen Arts Group at SAM. ARTattack is for teens and by teens.

TAG (Teen Arts Group)

January–June 2013, Thursdays, 4–6:30 pm & select Saturdays

TAG is for area high school students who want to make SAM fun and engaging for teens.

We are Leaders. Highly Opinionated. Creative. Visionary. Loud. Committed. Fun-Loving. Exciting. Thoughtful.

We plan Teen Night Out, from selecting performers and art activities and leading special tours to organizing film screenings and gallery talks.

We create audio projects, videos, posters, zines, stickers, buttons and teen-only events with artists, filmmakers, designers, sculptors, painters, writers, dancers, poets, musicians, DJs and more.

We receive community-service learning credit and creative life experience.

Want to Join TAG? Interested in meeting new people, learning radical new things, exploring world cultures and transforming museums? SAM is looking for 25 highly-opinionated teens  to join TAG. Come take over the Seattle Art Museum! Applications for next year’s TAG program are due by December 10 and interviews will be held Friday, December 14.
