Exhibits are dull & communicate poorly Graphics & way finding are terrible. Bad for groups, those with special needs & people who aren't fanatics. Confusing, unorganized, lacks cohesion & annoying.

The museum felt really small. I didn't really feel like it was worth the money.

Make sure to see the bottom floor of the SFM - the stairs down are back by the robots on the main floor!

Was a little disappointed this time - didn't realize the Science Fiction Museum wasn't open - by far my favorite part of this place. Avatar was okay - must be the only 1 on earth who isn't a fan.

Paul Allen's playground.

Worst museum ever! If you are over 10yrs old it will be underwhelming and disorganized. If you're less than 10 not sure you are allowed on 4square on your own!

Free the first Thursday of each month--and barely crowded (I don't know what that says, Paul).
