Wonderful place to visit for a brief walkthrough or stay and relax. You can either start on the shoreline or off of Broad St./Western Ave. There are multiple areas to set either in the red chairs or on concrete. During the day you can also sit inside the building that does have AC and some tables and chairs inside or out- there's also a restroom inside. The sculptures are very unique and it's a really cool view if you're looking out towards the water/ mountains or back towards Space Needle.

The Olympic Sculpture Park is easily one of the best places to visit in Seattle. It has amazing views of the sound, is free and open, plus features many awesome and large scale sculptures throughout the grounds. Also worth checking out are the excellent "SAM Lights" events that are hosted in the winter. During one such occasion Sensebellum was invited out to provide a custom interactive lighting display spanning the trees throughout the park. Buttons on a kiosk invited people to press them which in turn sparked sounds and light to emanate from the trees and connect the whole park! Select pictures by the wonderful and talented "Jen Au". Thank you again to the team at the Seattle Art Museum!

Beautiful park stretching along the water between Seattle's 2 main cruise ship terminals. Great for strolling, walking, jogging, bicycling... sitting and gazing at the sea. Other sites of interest along the park include naturalist on duty, rose garden, fishing pier (temporarily closed), grain terminal, and salmon pens.

If you haven't been here, or haven't been here lately, it is a fabulous place to visit on the Seattle waterfront. Don't let the name fool you, while there are outdoor sculptures to look at the trail that meanders along the waterfront is the main attraction. You can walk or bike with spectacular views or drop down and access the water to fish or dip your toes. You can continue your adventures along the waterfront to the south with great seafood restaurants and tourist shopping as well as the Seattle aquarium.
