The Frick Collection is pleased to provide Acoustiguide audio tours, a random-access digital audio guide that offers recorded information about the masterpieces on view through a lightweight, handheld listening device. The system, which provides up to three hours of material in English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, and Spanish, is included in the price of admission. A catalogue of related texts is available from the Museum Shop.
Certain areas are available for functions. For more information, see the Corporate Entertaining or Corporate Membership sections.
No, children under ten are not allowed in the galleries.
The Collection attempts to preserve the ambience of Mr. Frick’s
private house, and because few ropes or cases are used to protect fragile
objects, children under ten are not admitted. We suggest that if two people are
coming with a child, one can wait with the child in the Reception
Hall while the other visits the galleries.
No.
On Sundays you may pay-as-you-wish between 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m.
We do have slides, although they are not available
through the Museum Shop online. To request a slide and check availability,
please contact sales@frick.org.
