Fingertips
Time has proven to be quite peculiar this past year. To mark the
start of 2021, take a look at the Frick's world-class collection of timekeeping
treasures at frick.org
and enjoy the latest episode of Cocktails with a
Curator for a closer look at Clodion's Dance of Time.
As we look ahead, we're more grateful than ever to our community for your generous support of the Collection during our year-end Annual Fund campaign. We're eagerly awaiting our upcoming reopening at Frick Madison—recently named one of the most anticipated art-world moments of 2021 by the New York Times—and encourage you to pass the time with new opportunities below to engage, learn, and connect with fellow art enthusiasts online.

Frick Fact
Did you know that the most well-represented artist among those
collected by Henry Clay Frick is James McNeill Whistler? During his lifetime,
Frick purchased five oil paintings, three pastels, and eleven etchings by the
American expatriate artist. In 2019, the Frick also received a promised gift of
forty-two works on paper by the artist from the collection of
Gertrude Kosovsky.
Discover all of Whistler's works in the collection at frick.org.
Frick Madison
The Frick will reopen to the public in early 2021 at Frick Madison.
The temporary location will house the Frick's collections, programs, and staff
during the renovation and expansion of our historic buildings.
