Nominated for: BEST Art Gallery BEST Museum
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.
Since that time, works from the Frye Founding Collection of 232 paintings by Munich-based artists have continuously been on view. The Museum also hosts notable exhibitions of works by recognized and emerging artists from around the world.
Admission to the Museum is free. In keeping with our commitment to the community, the Frye offers many public programs for art lovers of all ages, including school tours, studio workshops, art history lectures, film, and music, many of which are free.
