Seattle Sights: Chihuly Garden and Glass

For mine and Andrew’s anniversary, we were looking for somewhere local to go that was new to us and was a little special. We decided on Chihuly Garden and Glass in Seattle because neither one of us had been before and the exhibition contains many pieces from the famed artist, so it felt pretty special!

Chihuly Garden and Glass contains eight galleries, a glasshouse, garden, and theater. My favorite was the glasshouse because of the grand scale of the artwork and how beautiful the room felt with light coming through the glass windows. I thoroughly enjoyed walking through all of the galleries and taking in the different themes and techniques Dale Chihuly utilized to create his art. It was beyond impressive.

Chihuly Garden and Glass is a spectacular Seattle sight not only for the amazing glass blown pieces, but because Chihuly is a local artist who is known around the world for his work.
