Following the show, there will be a reception for attendees to meet the filmmakers and instructors.
A HIP AFTER-HOURS PARTY AT THE OLYMPIC SCULPTURE PARK
Seattle Times
Call the Seattle Art Museum’s Remix event an unorthodox tour. Call it a pseudo-dance party. Just try not to call it educational, please. SAM started Remix about a year ago to be the museum’s “young contemporary hip night,” Jackson-Dumont said. But the old Remixes ended at 9 p.m., and the feedback Jackson-Dumont received indicated that people wanted more. “They felt they could spend significant amounts of time at the museum,” she said. With that in mind, the creators of the museum’s new, now-quarterly Remix have lengthened the hours from 8 p.m. to midnight, stepped back from some conventional night-at-the-museum ideas and re-crafted others to appeal to the 18-to-35-year-old demographic. “It’s called Remix because it really is about mixing up the institution, making it a place that’s not really what someone would expect,” Jackson-Dumont said.
