Thanks to a $10 million donation from Jeff and MacKenzie Bezos, the new (and extremely improved!) Museum of History & Industry (MOHAI) is opening a new section devoted to Seattle’s rich history of ingenuity. Spotlighting a huge range of local inventions and patents (from the Sonicare toothbrush to the Space Needle’s rotating restaurant), the Bezos Center for Innovation hopes to inspire ideas in future generations of Seattle entrepreneurs. Opens 10/12. mohai.org
