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.
