Explore the New SAM Downtown

"The expansion produces breathtaking presentations, a bounty of new works, enhanced viewer access and entry to a league once out of reach."

Oregonian, May 6, 2007

Come and celebrate the new downtown Seattle Art Museum which seamlessly integrates old and new buildings, creating timeless, light-filled spaces for art and for people.

	Allied Works Architecture’s elegant design opens SAM up to the city, connecting street activity to the life inside the museum.
	Three installations will complement the public corridor and create a destination for visitors of all ages.

	New installations create bridges between culture, time and place and make art come alive for the visitor, reinforcing SAM’s commitment to connect art to life.

	More than 100 works of art from the museum's collections have been selected for an in-depth interpretive project using new technologies.
