John Grade’s Middle Fork

Museums Are Open

Seattle’s museums are eager to welcome you.

Seattle and the greater Puget Sound region are home to an outstanding collection of unique museums, which welcome visitors to enjoy a full range of experiences.

You’ll find a few changes: some are still encouraging the advance purchase of timed tickets, and hours and access to certain galleries may be limited. Masks are optional at most locations.  Additional safety and sanitation protocols will keep you and your family safe as you enjoy the outstanding exhibitions and collections.

Please visit the websites of each museum ahead of time to learn more and purchase your reserved tickets if needed. No matter what your interest: pop culture, sea life, glass, aviation history, natural history, culture, art, and more, there’s something for you! Here are some visitor favorites.
