The museum and its collections are the legacy of Helen Clay Frick, daughter of Henry Clay Frick, one of America’s greatest industrialists and art collectors. During your time at the Frick, you can view fine and decorative arts and artifacts, magnificent exhibitions and vintage cars and carriages … take part in educational programs and concerts … enjoy fine dining and more.

The Center has continued to grow in the years following Clayton’s opening. In 1994, The Café at The Frick opened, offering both award-winning cuisine and a panoramic view of the grounds. The Car and Carriage Museum, built in 1997, expanded the original Carriage Museum which housed the Frick family’s vehicles. The Car and Carriage Museum presents not only the Frick family’s personal collection of cars and carriages, but also interweaves the history of the automobile with that of western Pennsylvania’s early auto enthusiasts and manufacturers. It also contains many vehicles from the collection of Pittsburgh industrialist G. Whitney Snyder.

The Frick Art & Historical Center provides a distinctive setting for weddings, corporate entertaining, or any important event or celebration. We can accommodate parties of as few as 20 people and as large as 250.
