Known forhistoryAsian AmericanCIDimmigration
A Smithsonian affiliate and one of the most community-rooted museums in the country, Wing Luke tells the stories of Asian Pacific American communities through deeply personal, community-curated exhibitions. The historic building — a former hotel where immigrants once lived — is part of the story, and the guided tours of the preserved residential floors are extraordinary. This is essential Seattle history that most visitors completely miss. Caveat: the guided tour portions have set times, so book ahead and arrive early to get the full experience.
