ABOUT EMP






About the EMP Building
EMP is housed in a 140,000 square foot Frank O.Gehry designed building that includes multiple innovative galleries, an interactive Sound Lab, and Sky Church—a concert venue with state-of-the-art sound and lighting that houses the largest indoor LED screen in the world. The spectacular, prominently visible EMP structure has the presence of a monumental sculpture set against the backdrop of Seattle Center.

About EMP 
Since opening its doors in 2000, EMP Museum has welcomed more than five million visitors, and has been a key economic driver among Seattle nonprofit arts and culture organizations, with institutional expenditures and audience-member spending resulting in more than six million dollars of local economic impact. Through dynamic programs, cutting-edge technology, and interpretative, interactive exhibitions focused on American popular culture, EMP seeks to engage museum visitors in critical thinking about creativity in contemporary society by educating and inspiring a range of visitors of different ages, interests, and experiences.

About the Science Fiction Hall of Fame
The Science Fiction Hall of Fame honors the lives, work and ongoing legacies of science fiction's greatest creators. Founded in 1996, the Hall of Fame was relocated from the Gunn Center for the Study of Science Fiction at the University of Kansas to its permanent home at EMP. Final inductees are chosen by a panel of award-winning science fiction authors, artists, editors, publishers, and film professionals, and are featured in laser-etched images on the translucent, glowing Hall of Fame display. Science Fiction Hall of Fame members include, Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, Ursula K. Le Guin, Mary Shelley, Isaac Asimov, Gene Roddenberry and Ridley Scott. The Science Fiction Hall of Fame is currently undergoing renovation and will reopen in 2012.
