Today I would like to share the art galleries at Tacoma Art Museum. We visited this museum last fall. Though I am not an art lover we still decided to visit this museum. It was a rainy weekend and we had to do some activity and head outdoors.
We drove to Tacoma and pulled in at the parking lot at the base of the museum. There are different galleries in the museum and we bought our tickets and started to explore. They allow photography without using flash.

As we walked towards the galleries this bison painting on the wall attracted my attention. There is a saddle next to it to sit and click pictures with the bison. I got one mine too.

This huge dog is placed at the entrance of one of the galleries. It is made out of cardboard and some kind of nails.




The museum also holds Dale Chihuly’s exhibit as he hails from Tacoma. Chihuly is well known here for his unique art with blown glass.





The museum has a cafe and a store. The view from the top floor is beautiful. As this is located in Tacoma downtown we could have a glance of the Union Station from the glass window.

I’m just crazy about chihully art pieces 🙂

Did you know that Chihuly does exhibitions at botanical gardens? We saw huge works of his spaced among the cactuses at the Desert Botanical Gardens in Phoenix. It was stunning.
Nice to see his works here.

Thank you for stopping by and sharing your thoughts. We haven’t visited Tacoma that often so I am yet to photograph the Union Station. Whenever I do so I will certainly notify you. 🙂
