Art of Everywhere: Especially...

At the Tacoma Glass Museum!
http://www.museumofglass.org/
Groups of 10 or more are $10, usually, BUT, if it's after 1pm on a weekday, then it would only be $8.
My class visiting it on our 8th grade class trip. It was awesome. We first looked around at the different exhibits that the museum, then we got to see guest glass blowers- blow their glass! It was an interesting place to visit. Here's an upcoming exhibit that would be awesome to see!

If we went to the Tacoma Glass Museum, only a little ways farther is the Seattle Art Museum! 
http://seattleartmuseum.org/

Tickets are Free for members of the museum. $23 for adults, and $18 for 13-17 with student IDs. 



The Seattle Art Museum is an epic place to visit. Especially from October 8- January 17. Picasso is being featured! They have over 150 of his paintings, drawings, sculptures, prints, and photographs. It is a must see. 






Also at the Portland Art Museum

The school group tours are free, they just have to be set up ahead of time. The hours of from 10-5 usually, but Thursday and Friday are from 10-8 and Sunday is 12-5.
They have all kinds of cool art there, whether it's paintings, pictures, or objects. It's all art!
This awesome museum as a bunch of permanent collections, but also has featured artists. 

Here's a temporary artist, Lee Kelly.
