Take a journey through historic First Hill, beginning at the turn of the 20th century when the museum's namesakes Charles and Emma Frye began collecting and showcasing art in their home. Discover how art, architecture, and design converged to create stunning interior spaces, inspire dramatic art-viewing experiences, and shape the character of a neighborhood.
Begin the evening with a lively discussion in Frye Salon with Director & Curator of Collections, Faith Brower, who will guide you through the history of the Founding Collection and share stories behind some notable works on display.
Next, embark on a brief walking tour of First Hill with Seattle Architecture Foundation tour guides, exploring the neighborhood’s early developments and evolving character. Then enjoy a light reception and guided tour of Stimson-Green Mansion, home of the Washington Trust for Historic Preservation and a contemporary of the Fryes’ original residence.
