Conference Venue

Seattle Art Museum
1300 First Avenue
Seattle, Washington

The Seattle Art Museum, located in downtown Seattle, was recently renovated to include an expansion of 118,000 square feet of new space. The expanded section was designed by Brad Cloepfil of Allied Works Architecure. The new more open design increases the museum's natural light and accommodates its growing collections, programs, and audiences. The museum's Plestcheeff Auditorium seats 293 people and is fully audio-visual equipped. The museum also has abundant facilities for poster presentations and catered receptions and is completely Americans with Disabilities Act compliant.

The opening reception will be held in the Grand Stairway and Mezzanine of the Seattle Art Museum. This entryway includes the great marble staircase, art instilations, and floor-to-ceiling windows which provide a great space for gathering with other conference attendees.

Our banquet reception will be held at the recently renovated Seattle Aquarium on the waterfront in downtown Seattle. More details on the venues and meeting are coming soon, so stay tuned!
