Around the World in 80 Days
This year’s theme, Around the World in 80 Days, pays homage to Jules Verne’s classic adventure novel that follows Phileas Fogg as he attempts to circumnavigate the globe in 80 days. Set in 1872, the story highlights the spirit of adventure and the advancement of travel of the time.
The 2025 Carnegie Trees Holiday Party will kick off the museum’s festive holiday season. Carnegie Trees typically attracts over 75,000 museum guests annually and brings visitors to the museum over the duration of the entire holiday season.

The Carnegie Trees Tradition
Since 1961, the annual installation and decoration of the soaring evergreens in the Hall of Architecture, fondly known as “The Carnegie Trees,” has been the signature tradition of the Women’s Committee of Carnegie Museum of Art, which underwrites and facilitates the trees as its gift to the Pittsburgh community. Your support of this annual fundraiser ensures the Women’s Committee’s financial support of Carnegie Museum of Art.
Founded in 1957, the Women’s Committee is dedicated to furthering the interests of Carnegie Museum of Art and promoting its cultural and educational value in the community. Since its inception, the Women’s Committee has funded the purchase of art for the Museum’s collections, contributed to its infrastructure and gallery renovations, created and supported outreach efforts for new audiences, and participated as a major donor to museum endowment and capital campaigns.
The Women’s Committee of Carnegie Museum of Art is a charitable 501(c)(3) organization. Donations are tax deductible to the fullest extent allowed. Official registration and financial information may be obtained from the Pennsylvania Department of State by calling 1-800-732-0999.
