Sometimes, the two of you can enjoy some quality time just by making a quick escape to a romantic place that offers something truly special for you to focus on. One such place is the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture. Considered to be one of the most impressive cultural institutions in the Pacific Northwest, this is anything but your average museum. On your date, you can casually stroll through the five galleries to take in the famously eclectic works and exhibits. The building itself is a work of art, as it features impeccable landscaping, an outdoor amphitheater, a museum store, and a great cafe where you both can get a cup of coffee and talk about the many artistic high points of your time together.
