events Olympic Sculpture Park Beach Naturalist Shore Stroll Sun Jul 12 2026 9 am–11:30 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Photo: Chloe Collyer Stroll along the Olympic Sculpture Park Pocket Beach Shore during low tide and you’ll see that the shore is alive! Drop-in to the Aquarium’s Beach Naturalist program to learn about and enjoy our vibrant shorelines. Beach naturalists are local experts on the marine environment who teach us how to explore shorelines while keeping animals and their homes safe. They might also share what sea stars eat, explain why barnacles stand on their heads, describe how moon snails lay their eggs, and so much more. The time of this event changes with the tides! To meet a beach naturalist during the lowest tides at the Olympic Sculpture Park Pocket Beach, check out the schedule. add to calendar What’s on at Olympic Sculpture Park Olympic Sculpture Park Beach Naturalist Shore Stroll Tue May 19 2026 11:30 am–2:30 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Public Tour: Discover the Olympic Sculpture Park Sat May 23 2026 1–2 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Public Tour: Discover the Olympic Sculpture Park Sun May 24 2026 1–2 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Community Celebration: Ai Weiwei's Circle of Animals/Zodiac Heads Sat May 30 2026 10 am–2 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Public Tour: Discover the Olympic Sculpture Park Sat May 30 2026 1–2 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Public Tour: Discover the Olympic Sculpture Park Sun May 31 2026 1–2 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Public Tour: Discover the Olympic Sculpture Park Sat Jun 6 2026 1–2 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Public Tour: Discover the Olympic Sculpture Park Sun Jun 7 2026 1–2 pm Olympic Sculpture Park sold out Party in the Park Fri Jun 12 2026 6:30–11 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Beach Naturalist Shore Stroll Sat Jun 13 2026 9 am–11:30 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Public Tour: Discover the Olympic Sculpture Park Sat Jun 13 2026 1–2 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Tee Up for SAM Sat Jun 13 2026 7–11 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Beach Naturalist Shore Stroll Sun Jun 14 2026 9 am–12:30 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Public Tour: Discover the Olympic Sculpture Park Sun Jun 14 2026 1–2 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Beach Naturalist Shore Stroll Mon Jun 15 2026 10 am–1 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Beach Naturalist Shore Stroll Tue Jun 16 2026 11 am–2 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Member Tee Time Tue Jun 16 2026 12–8 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Mini Golf at Olympic Sculpture Park Wed Jun 17–Mon Sep 7 2026 12–8 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Public Tour: Discover the Olympic Sculpture Park Sat Jun 20 2026 1–2 pm Olympic Sculpture Park Public Tour: Discover the Olympic Sculpture Park Sun Jun 21 2026 1–2 pm get tickets join SAM log in visit Seattle Art Museum Seattle Asian Art Museum Olympic Sculpture Park discounts accessibility group visits hotel partners what’s on exhibitions events programs art & artists SAM’s collection conservation rights & resources exhibitions for artists for researchers learn school tours libraries & archives SAM Stories learning resources for schools & educators for families for teens for researchers get involved membership donate venue experiences for members careers internships volunteers docents corporate support shop SAM Shop SAM Gallery info FAQ about SAM press equity contact privacy policy terms & conditions Sign up for SAM News
