About this place

A museum in Seattle combining natural history and cultural collections with rotating exhibitions. The current display focuses on woven textiles from historical and contemporary sources, including blankets, tunics, and skirts. Visitors can follow the full process of textile creation, from gathering raw materials through spinning, dyeing with natural dyes, and weaving patterns, while learning directly from practising weavers about the cultural knowledge embedded in their craft. The museum is open Tuesday to Sunday, with free admission on the first Thursday of each month.

If you are a member here

A membership to Burke Museum of Natural History & Culture carries reciprocal admission, so the same card is worth free or discounted entry at other places in these programs.

Reciprocal programs are built for travel and most exclude places close to the one where you hold your membership, so this is worth the most when you are away from home. How reciprocal memberships work
