If you haven't explored Bellevue Arts Museum with your kids, today could be your day: free first Friday runs from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Kids will be drawn to Jason Walker's folk art-tinged painted porcelain ceramics. Plus, check out BAM's third biannual, Knock on Wood, featuring the work of Northwest artists and craftspeople. Don't miss the "Frozen Fractals" imagination station on the first floor, where kids can make snowflakes galore.
Back in Seattle, learn Hawaiian ukulele tunes with local musician Daniel Pak. Drop in for $18 at Cornerstone Cafe in Hillman City at 4 p.m., then stop by Big Chickie for pollo a la brasa—and killer cornbread muffins.
Also today, a clue that Valentine's Day is near: Not one, not two, but three daddy-daughter dances are peppered throughout the Seattle-area Friday evening.
