The Building
Pike & 5th since 1916. B. Marcus Priteca, architect. One of the most beautiful rooms in Seattle, hidden in plain sight. This summer we are filling it with installations and experiments across three floors. Painting, photography, sculpture on the walls, plus digital program elements now in development.
General admission details are still being finalized as the pilot program takes shape. And on the tour, you can climb upstairs to where almost no one has been in fifty years. For the full restoration story, visit conruartfoundation.org/coliseum.
Beauty. Truth. Love.
The Summer of 2026
Pride brings the city. FIFA brings the world. We open on Friday, June 26, while the World Cup fills Lumen Field, and stay open through the rest of summer. Core dates are set now, with day-by-day programming details coming soon.
