The Frick Collection presents a new seasonal series of free public evenings at Frick Madison, the temporary home of the museum and library. Cheng-Harrell Open Nights feature after-hours museum and reading room access, gallery talks, sketching, and live music. Admission is free, but timed tickets are required and will be released online a few weeks in advance of each Open Nights event. Capacity is limited. Note that while only one ticket per order is permitted, it is possible to place multiple orders or note that you will be arriving with a care partner in the field provided.
The series kicks off with a celebration of Pride Month inspired by our ongoing installation project Living Histories: Queer Views and Old Masters. The event will include a special panel discussion moderated by Xavier F. Salomon, Deputy Director and Peter Jay Sharp Chief Curator, and featuring writer and cultural critic Roxane Gay along with Living Histories artists Jenna Gribbon, Doron Langberg, and Salman Toor.
The panel will also be livestreamed with CART captioning, and ASL interpretation will be provided in person for the gallery talks and panel discussion.
