WEBSITE
The Frick Collection believes in making art accessible to all, and we strive to make our digital spaces as accessible as our physical ones. Our website has been designed with an inclusive-for-all framework. The Frick is committed to continuously aligning with the most up-to-date Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), currently version 2.1, level AA criteria. We have included clear verbal descriptions of our works of art for screen readers. We also include transcripts for all audio content and closed captions for all videos. Please contact us with any questions, or suggestions for improvement.
Audio Transcripts
Transcripts are available on the Frick website and Bloomberg Connects app.

The Frick's guide on the Bloomberg Connects app is built to be used by people of all abilities. The audio player includes a transcript system, the video player includes closed captioning, and the images all include alternative text. The app is compatible with the accessibility features built into iPhone and Android devices, including zoom, voiceover, and activation.
Audio devices are not available for loan.
