Description

The Frame is a non-profit, student-run art space committed to showcasing the artistic work of Carnegie Mellon University students and to promoting ambitious and experimental art within our community.

Carnegie-Mellon University (CMU) was founded in 1900 by industrialist Andrew Carnegie as the Carnegie Technical School (it became CMU in 1967). Throughout its long history, the college has focused on education and research.

The gallery was opened in 1969 in a former neighborhood pharmacy a few steps from the main campus and has been called The Frame since 1998. Frame is a big open space with polished hardwood floors capable of showcasing many kinds of student-created work.
