What is some cool stuff to do in Seattle?

Cool stuff to see in Seattle

  • What interesting/unusual things can we do for a weekend in Seattle? Looking for something outside of shopping and the typical tourist stuff. Going to be in Seattle for a couple days with my friend and we were planning on doing some outdoorsy stuff, but realize it's dependant on the weather. What are some interesting indoors-type activities to do in the city? I have been there several times before, usually to go shopping/drink too much in Capitol Hill bars and am not really interested in doing more of that or typical tourist stuff like seeing the Space Needle/Pike Market-- more interested in seeing art, museums, local music, independent movie theatres, anything particularly weird/unusual/free. Are any of the art museums worth seeing? What about the Lake View cemetery? We'll be staying kinda out of the way but will have a car.

  • Answer:

    This specific weekend includes the http://www.siff.net/, one of the largest film festivals in the United States, with six venues. The Egyptian and Harvard Exit are particularly neat theatres.

Rent a kayak/canoe/rowboat from the http://cwb.org/ and paddle around looking at all the houseboats on Lake Union. Go to http://www.seattle.gov/parks/park_detail.asp?ID=399, where you can visit the Seattle Asian Art Museum, wander through the thoroughly awesome Volunteer Park Conservatory, and climb up the Volunteer Park Water Tower.
