SAM Shop & Gallery

Place is free to enter but you can contribute what ever you'd like. Some very nice exhibits. You can easily spend a couple of hours here.

Amazing displays and diversity of art genres. Wish the Egyptian displays were larger butt overall an outstanding time.

Could've wandered all day...

Attended on 1st Thursday of month and it was free. The Flesh and blood works exhibited were inspiring!

Wonderful museum experience for my family and me!

Just a cool place. Love the African masks

Amazing artist displays can be found here! Definitely a go to!

Showed art of some of countries I have visited.
The place is very uptight!

Awesome gallery! The space was large and had a mix of modern and older artwork. There is a coat check if you have luggage. Their signs at tickets are misleading, admission to the gallery except for the special exhibit is actually by donation.

I love this place! It's pretty big with a respectably large permanent exhibit collection. They have a large area for traveling collections, cafe, and the obligatory gift shop. However, the gift shop sells more than just mass produced souvenirs one could get anywhere. They also have a back room with original works!

This shop is located on the ground ĺevel of the SAM, and I consistently have found it to be the perfect place to pick up a thoughtful (or sometimes last minute) gift for the people that I find to be the most difficult to pick something out for. The staff are friendly are friendly, attentive, and always willing to answer a question or talk about art with.

Love the SAM Shop! Friendly staff and great inventory. Honestly, the best museum store in town. Great for souvenirs and gifts too!

Variety of art! 1st Thursday of the month is free. Thank you ❤

Seattle Art Museum has a fantastic permanent northwest collection on display. Traveling exhibits also grace the Museum's galleries. It is always an enlightening place to spend several hours.

Sam I used to work at Sam and it was really really nice and fun but what they've done with the new Sam is mated absolutely amazing we are true contenders now with the rest of the world Harmony Sam everything in it is absolutely extraordinary you've got to go visit that's wonderful I'm very pleased to know that we've done such a great job and I've had something to do with that girl Sam

Me and my lady went and gave our tickets which still had time on them to two girl that seem to be in high school. They were shocked and happy.

It's a really good museum, has a lot of very different areas so you'll probably end up finding lots of things you'll find interesting.

Great place, lovely lighting for the art! And it was a pay-what-you-want day which was really cool (as being a broke college student can be hard)

I've been visiting the SAM for over a decade. It is a main attraction for me. Great rotating exhibits.

Been visiting this pillar of Seattle and Ballard for more than 25 years. Don't forget the day old shelf for making epic croutons and bread pudding.
