Top 10 Things to do in Pike Place Market, Washington (WA)

November 16, 2021 Cedrick Jardin

In Seattle you simply can’t skip the Central Public Library – a modern architectural marvel of glass grids, unusual shapes, and a “book spiral” that climbs four stories. Stroll over to Pike Place Market to visit the original Starbucks and play catch with a fishmonger. In the heart of the city lies Chihuly Garden and Glass, which will dazzle you with its colorful and delicate works. Glide to the top of the Space Needle for panoramic views of the surrounding mountain ranges and Puget Sound.

Vetri

Vetri is a premier art gallery in Seattle offering a curated presentation of contemporary sculpture and well-executed handmade objects. At the core of our presentation are unique pieces that celebrate materials, an excellence in craftsmanship and the process of design. We believe beauty is an essential part of life, and that artists grant us access to beauty in new and unexpected ways; ways that educate our emotions and enhance our everyday lives. Founded in 1996 by the Traver family, Vetri began as a gallery dedicated to the young Studio Glass artists of the Pacific Northwest. Many prominent artists, such as Preston Singletary and Nancy Callan, had their first show at Vetri. Over the course of 20 years, we have exhibited hundreds of artists working with glass, and we have developed a reputation as being a launching pad for artists working in the medium. We have recently expanded to include interesting work by emerging ceramics artists, and intriguing sculptural jewelry by independent designers. Visit our gallery and rediscover handmade. We are located one block south of the historic Pike Place Market, across the street from the Seattle Art Museum and the Four Seasons Hotel.

Pike Place Market

One of the few authentic farmer's markets in the United States, this hub of delicious scents, delectable eats and delightful personalities attracts nine million visitors a year.

Reviewed By mhughes17 - Seattle, United States

Whether you live in Seattle, or are visiting, Pike Place Market is an awesome experience for every sense. You'll be surrounded by color, food, flowers, art, artisan cheeses, meats, flying fish (!), local arts and crafts, street musicians, and a great selection of restaurants from casual to one of the best kept secrets in Seattle - Maximillen's French Restaurant - tucked away behind the fish market on the south end of Pike Place on the top level. A wine list to die for, and fabulous French cuisine.
