Olympic Sculpture Park

Grounds and Pavilion

SAM Remix is back at the Olympic Sculpture Park! Wrap up the summer season with the best and brightest of our city’s creative community at SAM's signature late-night art party on Seattle’s waterfront.

This edition of SAM Remix is themed Avant Garden to celebrate all the extraordinary ways art and expression can blossom. Join us for art installations that push boundaries, performances that will raise your pulse, fashion displays inspired by the artworks at the park, photo booths where you become the art, DJs, tours, and more.

Dress code is nature unbound (i.e., bright florals, upcycled garments, animal prints, etc.). The first one hundred attendees to come dressed to petal perfection will receive a free drink voucher. Get your tickets early—there won’t be any available at the event!

SAM Remix is a 21+ event.
