Carnegie Museum of Art’s extensive slate of public programs creates opportunities for community connectedness and belonging by purposefully engaging youth, families and individuals from across our region.  

The museum encourages long-term participation in the arts by creating multiple points of entry, from its afterschool programs and free admission for Pennsylvania teens to no-cost art-making and sensory activities inspired by the exhibitions in its galleries. Each year, it offers over 200 classes, camps, and special events designed to engage and inspire. 

“Carnegie Museum of Art’s public programs facilitate the relationships and resources that make the connection between the internationally renowned pieces in our galleries and the creativity of those who make our region their home,” said Dana Bishop-Root, Director of Education and Public Programs for the museum.  

“We listen to what communities tell us about how the museum can be a resource for their life-long learning and well-being. And we build the partnerships and programs necessary to provide opportunities for all to be part of a dynamic and welcoming creative community.”
