| Free tickets to MoPOP for Saturday |
By Diane Hettrick
Here is the webpage - but don't click whatever is at the top of the page - it's an ad
It's a lot of fun to check for local museums - I never quite thought about how many we have. The list is a great addition to Fun Things to Do and Day Excursion lists.
There are two ways to use the site - either do a ZIP code search or allow the site to know your location.

It lists all the museums with a link for tickets. It also shows hours of operation - and it even lists all the free museums.
Here are the ones that are close by:
Of course, no ticket is required to visit the Shoreline Historical Museum at N 185th and Linden in Shoreline.
I didn't go south of Seattle, north of Snohomish county, or east of the lake. I didn't list anything that required riding a ferry.
A lot of these museums would be a fun thing to do if you were camping somewhere. If you go to Tacoma, they have a lot of very high quality museums.
Warning - the site has so many pop-up ads that all you have to do is breath on it and you'll get a new screen trying to sell you something. Just back out or close the ad window.
Here are the ones that are close by:
- Connections Museum, Seattle (no, I never heard of it either).
- Edmonds Historical Museum, Edmonds
- Frye Art Museum, Seattle
- Museum of History and Industry, Seattle
- Museum of Pop Culture, Seattle
- National Nordic Museum, Seattle (Ballard, of course)
- Seattle Art Museum, Seattle
- The Museum of Flight, Seattle
- Wing Luke Museum, Seattle
