About the Company

Internationally recognized as a premier museum and research center, the Frick is known for its distinguished Old Master paintings and outstanding examples of European sculpture and decorative arts.
The collection originated with Henry Clay Frick (1849–1919), who bequeathed his home, paintings, sculptures, and decorative arts to the public for their enjoyment.
The institution’s holdings have grown over the decades, more than doubling in size since the museum's opening in 1935.
A critical component is the Frick Art Research Library, founded in 1920 by Helen Clay Frick, recognized as one of the world’s top art history research centers.
The Frick has undergone a comprehensive renovation and was open in a temporary home, Frick Madison, from 2020 through early 2024.
The museum and Art Research Library reopened to the public in April 2025.
We pride ourselves on promoting an open and welcoming workplace culture that supports work-life balance.
The Frick strives to provide employees with competitive salaries and exceptional benefits in a beautiful and pleasant work setting, while offering an excellent opportunity to appreciate some of the world’s finest works of art.
