EMP Museum

EMP is Seattle’s tribute museum to the history of Northwest music, from Jimi Hendrix to Nirvana. But it’s much more than that. Celebrating pop culture and science fiction, the exhibition space is wrapped inside Frank Gehry’s fluid, shiny temple to the creative arts. Play in your own virtual rock band while learning about the region’s rich rock legacy, or geek out in the Science Fiction and Fantasy Hall of Fame. In the Venn diagram of 20th-century creativity, this is where Isaac Asimov meets Kurt Cobain.
