The City of Seattle has released an interactive map of public art pieces located in city parks. If you’re an art lover, or just like to look for excuses to visit different places around the city, you can use the map to prompt ideas for outings.
The map webpage is here. When you touch one of the blue dots the name of the piece appears at the bottom of the page. If you then click on Media at the top right of the page you’ll get a display of a larger image. At the top of the page on the left side you can click on List to see just a list view without the map.
Happy art hunting!

I’m currently in La Conner housesitting for my mom. Since this is my first vacation in a year and a half I didn’t feel like posting a preview this week. I might not next week either. My mom and her husband are gallivanting around with their trailer and I’m not even sure what day they’re coming back next week. Life is rough!
In the meantime, you can enjoy the view from my outing to Washington Park in Anacortes that I took earlier today. What a fabulous park! I will do a full preview in the future.
