Seattle’s Museum of History and Industry in South Lake Union delves not only into the city’s past, but also connects to the present, and envisions the future. There are two permanent exhibitions that are the focal point of the museum. Visitors can trace the historic path of Seattle from Pacific Northwest wilderness to today’s modern, urban metropolis in True Northwest: The Seattle Journey. Visitors will be able to explore 25 displays in this exhibit. The second equally intriguing permanent exhibition is Bezos Center for Innovation. This is where visitors can examine the vision of Seattle’s future. Kids will love investigating MOHAI with free Exploration and Innovation Packs to guide them.
