Located on Seattle’s First Hill, the Frye Art Museum first opened its doors in 1952 as the legacy of Charles and Emma Frye, prominent early-twentieth-century Seattle business leaders and art collectors. Admission to the museum is always free.
The collection includes nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century German and American paintings, as well as more contemporary works that bridge visual art, media, and installation. The Museum also hosts a wide variety of rotating exhibitions featuring local, national, and international artists.
All visitors are welcome to join a wide variety of programming and events, from free weekly tours to film screenings, concerts, artist lectures, and more. The newly opened MariPili at Café Frieda serves Galacian-inspired fare. The Museum Store features a curated collection of one-of-a-kind items from Pacific Northwest designers and artists.
