Visual Art Museum of the Year – Seattle 2025
SAM is the leading visual arts institution in the Pacific Northwest and has been a champion of Seattle’s cultural landscape since 1933. Across three locations—the Seattle Art Museum in downtown Seattle, the Seattle Asian Art Museum in Volunteer Park, and the Olympic Sculpture Park on the Seattle waterfront—SAM celebrates the region’s position as a crossroads where east meets west, urban meets natural, and local meets global. Our collections, exhibitions, and programs feature art from around the world and build bridges between cultures and centuries.
