The Seattle Asian Art Museum has a great kid’s room. There, children can learn how to make origami figures such as cranes. They also have the opportunity to learn about the symbol behind this by listening to the story of Sadako and the thousand cranes. There are a multitude of kids’ books about Japan, India, China, and other Asian countries. Children can also draw, color, and dress up in kimonos.
Museums & Exhibits
Chihuly Garden and Glass at night
I am not a big fan of glasswork arts but I must admit that Chihuly Garden and Glass at night is really something else. The lighting on the chandeliers and sculptures in the green house as well as the garden makes them look beautiful.
JAPAN ART DECO Seattle Asian Art Museum.
A must-see: JAPAN ART DECO prints, jewelry, ceramics and furniture.
