Special Exhibition

Installation view of Joyce J. Scott: Walk a Mile In My Dreams at the Seattle Art Museum, photo: Chloe Collyer.

Experience a guided journey through works in Joyce J. Scott: Walk a Mile in My Dreams. This 50-year career retrospective includes sculpture, bead work, jewelry, textiles, artwear garments, performance compilations, mixed-media installations, and a new large-scale commission.

Learn how Scott explores beauty, humor, and pressing issues like racism, sexism, environmentalism, and complex family dynamics through her virtuosic use of beads and glass.

Tours are free with museum admission. Meet at the entry to the exhibition galleries on the 4th floor for this 60-minute guided tour with a SAM Docent.
