The Henry Art Gallery is the art museum of the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington, USA. Located on the west edge of campus along 15th Avenue N.E. in the University District, it was founded in 1927 and was the first public art museum in the state of Washington. It was expanded in 1997 to 40,000 square feet (3,700 m²), at which time the 154-seat auditorium was added.

The Henry's exhibition program is largely devoted to contemporary art and the history of photography. Recent exhibitions include solo exhibitions by Maya Lin (2006), Lynn Hershman Leeson (2005-06), Doug Aitken (2005), Axel Lieber (2004-05), and James Turrell (2003), and group exhibitions such as W.O.W. - The Work of the Work, 2004-05, which explored contemporary art's appeal to non-visual senses and the body of the viewer.

The Henry's collection includes over 18,000 objects. It was named for Horace C. Henry, the local businessman who donated money for its founding, as well as a collection of paintings. The collection includes strong holdings in photography, both historical and contemporary, due to the partial gift and purchase of the Joseph and Elaine Monsen collection. The Henry also holds a James Turrell skyspace, Light Reign, which is illuminated at night by color-shifting LEDs behind frosted glass. Like the Seattle baseball stadium, the skyspace has a retractable roof.

Woodland Park Zoo, which occupies the western half of Seattle's (USA) Woodland Park, near Green Lake, began as a small menagerie on the Woodland Park estate of Guy C. Phinney, Canadian-born lumber mill owner and real estate developer. Opened in 1899, the 188-acre Woodland Park was sold to the city for $5,000 in cash and the assumption of a $95,000 mortgage on December 28, 1899, by Phinney's wife (Phinney had died six years earlier, in 1893). The sum was so large that the Seattle mayor vetoed the acquisition, only to be over-ruled by the city council. In 1902, the Olmsted Brothers firm of Boston was hired to design the city's parks, including Woodland Park, and the next year the collection of the private Leschi Park menagerie was moved to Phinney Ridge.
