The Seattle Art Museum was established in 1933. It was preceded by the Seattle Fine Arts Society (1910-1929) and the Art Institute of Seattle (1929-1933). From 1933 until 1991 the museum was based in Volunteer Park, in a building designed by Carl F. Gould. A new museum in downtown Seattle opened in 1991 with a collection in excess of 18,000 objects. The Volunteer Park building became the Seattle Asian Art Museum, also administered by the Seattle Art Museum.
