The Andy Warhol Museum Reviews

Our family enjoyed a visit to this museum that took about 2 hours. We purchased timed tickets in advance and found on street parking a few blocks away. Admission price seemed high for what we saw.

We were directed to begin touring the museum on the top floor. Arrows marked the route around each floor. We found it frustrating that the arrows directed the viewer in the opposite direction the display was set up. For example, posted descriptions of each piece of art were on the far side. So you had to walk past the art to read about it and then backtrack to see it. And, the arrows directed in a pattern that was not intended by the display maker. So, we saw the end of the display first and the beginning of the display last.

There was one floor that was closed and that likely contained some of Warhol's most iconic pieces. We were very disappointed to miss this. There was no mention of this prior to purchasing tickets or entering the facility.

Family's with young children should be aware there is significant nudity and graphic content.

Overall we liked the museum but were disappointed with the attention to the visitor experience. Recommend you wait until the missing floor content returns and COVID direction restrictions are lifted.

It is expensive, ask for any discounts you can get. There is a parking lot across the street, $8/day but it can fill up quickly. There are parking decks within walking distance. Start on floor 7 and work your way down. You will see the early life of this iconic artist on the upper floors and work your way through his life as you descend the building. There are a few interactive areas, be sure to try them out: silver clouds is especially fun. You need to have a couple of hours to really see and contemplate all there is in this building. Also plan on spending some time in the first floor cafe. I think you need an appreciation for the artist to really have the greatest experience.

If you like Andy Warhol - this place for you. If you don’t know Andy Warhol - this place for you. From birth through all life of this famous person

Interesting museum, but as a conclusion I found myself less enthralled by his art and more interested by his disturbed mind.

This is a quiet and quaint museum. The day that we went there weren't that many other visitors, and it's 7 floors but it's not a huge museum. Very calming atmosphere as you walk through the exhibits, definitely a great & relaxed visit. Very interesting to learn about Warhol's life and works. Definitely recommend.

In Pittsburgh? Gotta Go! This museum is beautifully designed and you can spend as much or as little time as you want on each floor. Starting on the top 7th floor and working your way down is the suggested method Our suggestion would be to start or end with the little cafe which has snacks or a yummy lunch.
This is a great museum but not for young children.

I was very excited to go to the museum. It was to be a highlight of my daughter and I's trip. She did stumble upon a few 'drawings' by flipping through drawings books that a younger kid might have been quite surprised about...

But overall, we did enjoy the museum and its layout by years of creation. I understand there must be rotating exhibit and I missed one that I would have particularly wished to see.

I am glad that I got to discover another side of Warhol, but I also wished they would have had a few of his better known pieces exhibited.

Worth seeing though.

There are 7 floors when you include the basement, so there is a lot to see! Can easily spend 2 or more hours here. This is not just his art, but his life story too. So interesting. He did so much, and his art was so varied, videos, prints, paint, photos.... A bit disappointed that they were in the middle of changing exhibits, so some of the iconic art wasn't available. Still worth the stop.

Glad that we visited the Warhol Museum, but . . . .
One can admire Warhol's creativity and enjoy his MAJOR works, but there is much in this museum that is far beyond interest to most people. And his movies are some of the more boring displays of self-absorbed dullards and a waste of time. Different strokes for different folks.

The museum ... is beautifully presented and shows the pop art works of Andy Warhol. We liked it very much and it was very entertaining. For $ 20 entry is definitely worth it. On the opposite the museum can park relatively less expensive (8 $) by car!

Really loved the collection and curation at this place - we learned a great deal about local Pittsburgh boy, Andy, and his family, his early education, and his early successes in design. Love the top down idea covering major periods in his development. Also, really one of the coolest museum stores ever.

I'm sure some some of you would enjoy it, and I'm glad I went. It wasn't what I expected, and no Campbell's Soup cans. Parking is $8.

Had a very enjoyable visit to the Warhol Museum. My husband didn't think he had any interest in going, but he ended up also having a worthwhile experience. I was disappointed not to see some of the more famous pieces, and it would have been helpful if they had a map of the different floors and what was on them. There was more to see than we had time for, and we spent about 1:45 hours walking from the top to bottom floors. A true Warhol fan could easily spend half of a day here as there are movies to be watched and LOTS of art work. The archives of Andy's personal collections of "things" was most interesting as was the "cloud" room. A guided tour with a docent would have been wonderful; I don't think there are any available. We were sorry the conservation lab was not operating when we were there. The cafe has some nice food options, and the people staffing it were very pleasant.

First of all, the famous pop artist named Andy Warhol was Andrew Warhola growing up in Pittsburgh...one of the sons helping out their dad delivering and selling produce from their truck in Pittsburgh.

This museum is in a renovated vintage building at the edge of Pittsburgh's downtown, and chronicles his life (and impacts on our American culture...) during a stroll from the top floor of the museum back down to the lobby...it is indeed a fascinating journey for those who have already lived it...and for those who may appreciate the parallels of that time with today.

Enjoy!

I have never been a huge Andy fan, but the way they have this laid out following the history of his career is fascinating! Well worth the price of admission, or pop in to simply have your photo taken on the red couch !!!

I found out lots of things I never knew about Andy Warhol, lots of things to see and quite a few interactive displays, even some tactile replicas of some of the art for the visually impaired, with Braille explanations to go with them.

The museum itself was AMAZING. But man, they were OBNOXIOUS when the museum closed at exactly 5:00. They had a private event, they kept announcing. Lights dimming, gates going down, announcement after announcement being made, They started barking at us in the bookstore 20 min before it was to close. I had to use the restroom. Was told no. I had an hour drive ahead of me. I begged them. They finally let me go use the bathroom.

Welp, I guess private donors bring in the big money. THEY matter. Schlunks like me and my family who only paid 27 bucks per head?
Not so much.

Money talks.

We went to the museum on a Friday night, when the rate to get in is reduced. There are 7 floors to visit. We learned a lot about Andy Warhol that we didn't know. We're happy we went, but once was definitely enough.

Visited with my art loving kids. We were a bit disappointed that some of the more well known pieces weren’t here. It was still worthwhile, easy lay out and not crowded. My kids took part in the art factory making stuff and they really enjoyed that. We grabbed snacks and drinks in the cafe and the gentleman working there was super kind and helpful.

Arrived early and parked in lot kitty corner to the museum. I walked over and checked in (this floor has the cafe which wasn't opened the day I was there, the cool gift shop and a theatre with videos playing.

The tour starts by taking the elevator to the top floor and working your way back down to the first floor.

There are some time lines on most floors about his career and a lot of paintings and items from Warhol's life. Among the galleries, there were rooms that were tributes to people he knew and worked with like Grace Jones and cabaret singer/actress Tally Brown.

A gallery revisiting his Fantasy America as interpreted by newer artists like Nona Faustine, Kambui Olujimi, Pacifico Silano, Naama Tsabar, and Chloe Wise was well presented.

I liked the floor dedicated to the work he did with Basquiat which shows how the two artist complimented each other through works like "Ten Punching Bags (The Last Supper)" which is on display until September, 2021.

The place seems to be in constant flux with new displays constantly being put together showcasing the diverse influence Andy Warhol had on art, pop culture and society.

Weather seeing items from his personal collection, walking through his interactive art like "Silver Clouds" or his paintings like "Do It Yourself (Sailboats)", Flowers" or his "Elvis Presley" series of twelve prints, it is a unique and interesting look at his artistic life.

The museum has an extensive archives which was my favorite floor. I didn't go into his films and things like that, but they have some things from his personal collection as well as artifacts from his life in the many drawers.

This is a great museum dedicated the one of the most unique individuals that we have seen.

I really enjoyed my museum visit. Loved all the artwork and reading about the history. The time went by so quickly! I could have looked at the archives forever. We arrived a little early but they kindly accommodated us. Would highly recommend.

Loved museum, it started at 7th floor and worked way down floors through earliest times to most recent times in Andy's career. Exhibits were very informative & interactive.

The museum tells a great story about his life. The artwork is incredible. Speaking with one of the historians was wonderful

The Andy Warhol Museum is an extension of Pittsburgh's Carnegie Museum collection. Warhol's personal background, his early commercial graphic work, and his ultimately famous modern art & film creations are all covered by this extensive collection. The temporary closure of two of the museum's five upper floors was a disappointment during our visit, but my wife & I still spent 90 minutes viewing the rest and learning more about the life & times & eclectic acquaintances of this creative man.

Unique experience in downtown, Pittsburgh. Andy Warhol (Pittsburgh native) was born Andy Warhola in 1928. He was the son of immigrants from Slovenia and grew up in a Pittsburgh ethnic neighborhood. The Andy Warhol Museum is must see, just a few minute walk from PNC Park.

This was an interesting museum in a clean, well kept building. It’s designed so you start on the 7th floor for Warhol’s early life and work your way down. The collection represents work from every stage of his life. There are prints, sketches, ads, movies, performance art, music albums, sculptures and lots of personal items and documentation from Warhol’s many time capsules. I enjoyed seeing his mom’s sketches of a cat with a hat on a hat and her multiple attempts at birds and other animals. I also really enjoyed his line sketch portraits and the humongous The Last Supper. Nice bathroom in the basement. I enjoyed myself but thought it was average for museums, and at $25/pp it is not cheap.

I had recently watched the Andy Warhol diaries on Netflix and coincidentally was going to be in Pittsburgh for the weekend, so how could I not go to the Andy Warhol museum? It has seven floors and the top four floors were dedicated to only Andy's personal history and art work. But the other floors had nothing to do him. Even though it was stated that the displays change, I was hoping to see more of his most famous artwork. All in all I was very pleased.

Start at the top of the museum on the 8th floor & make your way down for a wonderful retrospect of Andy Warhol's life and his influence on the art world & society. Definetely worth a visit.

Not a fan but glad we went. Great reflections and displays and offerings from an important part of American culture

A lovely collection in a dedicated museum. A wide array of Andy Warhol's work which illustrates the progression of his art over his lifetime. Wonderful! Wear a jean shirt, black pants and sunglasses and take a pic on the red sofa in the lobby :)

Went here with my 14 YR old daughter. Enjoyed seeing his artwork and reading about his life. Went through it rather quickly. If you plan to grab a bite to eat there, be sure to check the cafe hours. And don’t expect a meal. More of a snack

Terrific museum with a great archive of his work and life. Organized by decade and floor, each area gives a nice, multi-media overview of key works - paintings, movies, installations. Start at the top and work down. A fun and nice shop and cafe provides the perfect end to your visit.

Incredibly disappointing. Paid full price for tickets yet 2 of the floors were unavailable to view. New exhibits supposedly coming. Very little to look at on the floors that were open. I had I been aware, of course the website said nothing, I wouldn't have wasted my time.

The staff could at least attempt to look professional instead of swear pants and sneakers.

I went here to see a piece of art history that I study in college and had a great time learning about his life. Like first off I honestly didn’t know Andy Warhol was from Pittsburgh. For some reason I thought he was from New York. I don’t know why, but I just did. The entire museum is laid out very well and can be done in two to three hours. I highly recommend this museum to anyone who enjoys art.

The museum was laid out nicely and was spacious. It was not real crowded, so you could move about freely. In addition to Warhol's art, the museum provided lots of information about Andy Warhol's childhood & life. The museum is 100% Warhol, so big Warhol fans will obviously enjoy the museum more than the general art lover. The basement had some hands-on art options, which was nice. I would not recommend the museum for children.

Its not just 7 floors about Pittsburgh's native son Andy Warhol, its a trip through the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s. Pop culture divine. Interesting from an art evolution and q history standpoint. My 18 year old, not much into modern art, lasted 2.5 hours.

On a pleasant Friday evening in the middle of April,I spent 3 hours enjoying the silkscreen creations of Andy Warhol as well as learning about Andy Warhol,the movie producer.I especially savored the following silkscreen creations of Warhol's:"Flowers","Grace Jones""(Michael Barrocal"(employed acrylic silkscreen ink and diamond dust on linen),"Elvis Presley".and"Liz Taylor".I also saw a wonderful creation of an elephant by Keith Haring in this art museum.I also saw fine photographic works by Peter Brands("Donna Jordan and Jane Forth"),Antonio Lopez,and Chloe Wise,among others.I also liked Andy Warhol's"Silver Clouds".
This art museum emphasized Andy Warhol's Gay Lifestyle much more than it did in previous times..Covid 19 Protocol is strictly observed at this quality art museum(face masks, online ticketing)

The Andy Warhol Museum is able to give the casual visitor with limited knowledge of Andy Warhol's life and art a good insight into his artistic development and how his early life in Pittsburgh influenced him.

Besides learning he did the Sticky Fingers album cover (with help) and a Cars music video, I learned absolutely nothing of interest. I can not believe there is an entire building dedicated to this pop artist. He did a bunch of commercial advertising and made a lot of movies that NO ONE has even heard of. This place was a terrible waste of time and money. Not a Must See in Pittsburgh at all. Go do ANYTHING else while you are here.

I loved exploring the Andy Warhal Museum. We moved back to PA in 2020 after being away for 40 years. Exploring Pittsburgh finally after the pandemic it's so exciting.

Avery special place were you can follow Andy Warhol artistic development and creativity. The museum is well designed to visit and stroll in an afternoon ...good for a day of rain.

What a nice museum. This building is incredible - it's modern but still inviting. The entrance fee is very cheap for the amount of time it will take you to go through it.
Basically you start at the top and work your way down floor by floor which is basically a decade of his life a floor.
I never knew there was so much to know about this artist. The items on display are educational and interesting.
It was a fun learning experience and a must for anyone visiting Pittsburgh.
Pay a meter around the museum cheaper than the parking lot

It was parking for $8 in the lot across the street. Admission was $20 and 1/2 Price for children and seniors. There was a lovely gift shop and Cafe on the first floor. We started at seven and worked our way down.
We saw photographs and sketches of Warhols family. He saved hats and scarves from his mother. Andy’s high school yearbook picture was posted. We saw his silk screen molds & art. We saw his impact on famous people and marketing. A lot of his belongings are saved in the archives: Sketches, tapes, housewares, shoes, photographs…

I will be honest. I am not an art guy but was curious about Andy Warhol. It was interesting although not moving for me. I am glad I went but can't say will be going back just based on my interest. The history was rich and it gave me perspective of Pop Art.
Must go for Pittsburghers. The sequencing of working from top down in the building was very helpful.

This museum gives an interesting perspective on an unusual artist. From his upbringing to his college time to his later work, this museum gives a great look at his life and work.

Had a pretty great time at the museum especially on the ground floor where you can make your own screen print for free. There were also options to screen print on notebooks ($5) or t shirts and tote bags, very reasonable price. Be sure to bring a student ID for half price tickets, such a great deal

We were in town for a concert and was looking for something to do. I have visited the museum before myself 10 years ago and they definitely changed a lot. It was nice to experience the museum a second time

Informative, well-organized, pleasant visit to the Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh on the North Shore of Allegheny, a stone's throw from Downtown by the 7th Street Bridge.
We particularly enjoyed the films and videos and the floor dedicated to the Factory and the Velvet Underground...
Worship !

My wife and I are somewhat into history and art. With that said this was one of the more interesting places we have visited as I was not familiar with everything Andy Warhol had done I’ve seen the Monroe and others of the like but there is definitely a lot to take in over the 7 floors of exhibits well worth visiting if you like art or history.

Great display of artwork. The staff was knowledgeable and attentive. It is great if you have limited time to spend on an activity

Visited here on a Friday evening, and hadn't realized there was half price entry. The museum is huge and very interesting. Worth a visit, particularly after 5.00pm on Fridays.

Fun And interesting overview of Andy warhol’s life and work. Videos of his screen tests and the ability to record one’s own. Fun workshop in which visitors can silk screen Warhol art onto posters and t shirts.

Worth the trip when you visit Pittsburgh. Several floors of well-designed exhibits. Nice cafe on entrance level.

The video on the first floor gives history and context for anyone new to Warhol’s legacy. The younger kids created free art in The Studio on the bottom level while the teens went through the whole museum. A good look at the art, the man behind the art, and the social context.

It's unique in the sense that it's partly an art museum and partly a biographical history museum. One of the famous yellow suspension bridges is named after Warhol, so Pittsburgh takes him seriously. Besides the paintings, there was the cloud (balloon) room, a floor dedicated to music, videos, and "interesting" (somewhat bizarre if I may be frank) things he collected.
Very nice staff.
Only 3/5 because I didn't see most of his iconic works and at $25 I felt it was pretty expensive.
Word of caution to parents: Some of the drawings + videos borderline on unsuitable for young children.

A somewhat boring experience. Spend your money elsewhere. Masks required and I was asked twice to put it up over my nose—it already was.
Monitors on every floor that watch you like a hawk.

Coming from NY, I didn't realize Warhol had Pittsburgh roots. The museum is expertly laid out chronologically allowing you to easily follow his life. Some amazing examples of his work and I even enjoyed the Chloe Wise art in the special exhibition. You can probably get through it in 1.5-2 hours at a decent pace.

The museum lays out Andy Warhol’s life and work beautifully, starting with his early years in Pittsburgh on the top floor, and working chronologically through the significant periods of his life floor by floor.

Wow huge museum! 7 floors of his paintings, photos, and movies. Huge huge paintings! I think I wasn’t that into this because Warhols style and works have been recycled over and over. What was the most interesting were the descriptions and portraits of those he kept close. I can’t tell if he was before his time using interracial imagery and portraits of gender nonconforming folks or he was just another culturally appropriating white guy.

A museum filled with art and lots of info and photos about Warhol's life. If you like his work , you will love the museum.

OK I’ll start by I am not a huge fan of this style of art but my wife is a fan. The review is not meant to judge the artist but more the museum and location.

1. The museum is tucked in a area not close to nice resturaunts or other sites (it’s near PNC Park)
2. There was a lot of building construction around the area
3. The cost is $20/person for a tour of the 7 story build/museum
4. The layout is not really conducive to an easy tour

All that said, he was an interesting man and if you like his art or story you’ll most likely enjoy!

I suppose it is not the museum's fault that I hate pop art. We got in for free with our Carnegie Membership, so we figured it had to be worth it. I'm not sure it was. Some interesting tidbits about Andy Warhol and a bunch of his art, but you have to really like pop art and Andy Warhol to find this interesting. I just found it boring and weird.

The museum is very interesting and well organized! Start at the top and work your way down. Lots to see and touch. We didn’t know much about Warhol before visiting and we’re very engaged with the exhibits. Good way to engage with Pittsburgh history and culture!

Quite a nicely organized museum with lots to see and learn. Loved the basement creative opportunities.

Warhol worked thoughtfully and creatively at the intersection between art and commercial practice. He was prolific and varied in his approach and successfully caused controversy at every turn. His work is well presented at this museum which, ideally, takes at least 3 or 4 hours to explore.

Seven floors, organized by time period walk you through the life of this artist. Very interesting to learn of his early life in Pittsburgh and the wild life he lived in NY. The range of the artwork is extreme, from the consumer based product work to the more eccentric film projects, it is worth the price of admission.

the Andy Warhol museum is very interesting. You can spent hours seeing an special art. The simple things are turned special and unique.

An interesting timeline of the artist with cultural points intermingled with his story and how these icons or iconic moments influenced him in ways you may not have known.

Well organized (go from 7th floor down for a chronological display). Very informative, great space for the subject, and quite comprehensive. Well worth the money.
Not for kids under 12, there is some mature content.

This museum has everything you want to know about the artist, from early childhood days to adult. His works are displayed on several floors of the building. Each floor is spacious, so visitors will not feel crowded when viewing the various displays.

Wonderful museum, full of interesting stories, anecdotes, and history of Andy Warhol. I knew little of him going into the museum but found myself leaving having a good knowledge of him and his life and works. Definitely recommend.

An excellent representation of American icons and symbolism from the late 1950’s through the 1980’s via the lens of Andy Warhol, coupled with little-seen art from Warhol’s early years as part of a Pittsburgh family of immigrants who sacrificed to invest in his education.

We spent some time in the museum on a Friday night - that night chosen specifically because it's cheaper to visit the museum then.

Great, comprehensive museum about him and his style of art. We aren't huge museum fans but there was nice variety and some cool interactive things in this museum.

The gift shop stocked really quirky items for purchase as well.

Very much enjoyed our time that evening, especially because it was discounted!

Don’t bring a backpack style pocketbook! I entered the museum, passing a security guard. I paid at the front desk where at least two employees sat. I began my tour, as directed, on the 7th floor where I even nodded hello to the guard in the gallery. I had traversed the entire 7th floor for something like 1/2 hour to 45 minutes. All the time wearing my bag — that goes over my shoulders backpack style, but is SIGNIFICANTLY smaller. As I was minding my own business, starting to look around the 6th floor, a woman who was an assistant manager or such approached me. She said I couldn’t have my backpack in the galleries. I said it’s my pocketbook. She said my bag looked too much like a backpack. I explained it was a pocketbook, only containing my wallet, camera, sunglasses and a couple of personal items. I said I’d zip the strap and wear it over my shoulder. Not good enough. She said zipped and across my front. It was too small for that to be comfortable. Then, she said that if I couldn’t wear it that way, I had to check it. This is my personal pocketbook containing my wallet, glasses, etc. No thank you. As I board the elevator with Miss Thing to leave, we passed a woman with a stroller, large diaper bag and much bigger bag than mine…evidently, Miss Assistant Manager looked at her and claimed she had a medical excuse. What? Since I refused to handover my pocketbook, which as a New Yorker, has been with me to The Metropolitan Museum of Art (including the Cloisters), Museum of Natural History, Museum of Modern Art, The Whitney and more. And as my go-to style bag, all the Smithsonian’s in DC, but wasn’t allowed in this comparatively small venue because it posted some kind of threat. I always, hand it over for any inspection at any venue with such a policy, but I’m not letting anyone take my pocketbook ! And, I had passed 4 or 5 employees who obviously were unconcerned before this woman showed up. My husband and I got our money refunded. I’m not a child. I’m a 50-something professional, who was minding my own business and not disturbing a soul. But, my not even 8x10 Baggallini bag’s style was preposterously labeled an insurance hazard. I just want you all to be forewarned. Very petty Andy Warhol museum, next time I’ll be sure to bring a medical pass big as a suitcase diaper bag so I pass inspection.

We walked up the 7 flights of stairs due to the elevator being extremely slow. We waited for 10 min but it never came. Some floors have paintings, some have videos. One floor just has a cluttered office space to show he was a hoarder. 1 room just has silver square balloons being pushed around by a fan. There is so much Warhol has to offer so I figured the Collection would be the prime of his works but it's not. Maybe they are displayed at other museums. The gift shop was where all the people were lingering if that tells you anything about the art. Oh Well, we can say we've been there.

Pretty fun and interesting! I knew Andy Warhol did silk screening and pop art, but found out so much cool information about his life and his connections through the art and descriptions. Definitely not the most family friendly, but as a young adult I found it FASCINATING! My sister and I are students so we only paid 10$ to get in because it was a Friday evening. Definitely worth it!

I was aware of Andy Warhol through most of his fame, but not that entranced with him. It was interesting to fill in some of the gaps about his life and see some of his work.

Large museum with great displays of Warhol's works. I expected more of his famous works (at least prints) to be displayed. Gift shop was great.

Well done museum. The museum is put together nicely with different phases of Warhol’s career. They were able to portray his original background and entire life history in three floors. I enjoyed seeing the many works of this quirky talented gone too soon individual.

What a wonderful museum. We were worried it would be too crowded when we saw large crowds of students entering, but the way the museum is set up, all crowds were dispersed. Seven floors of Andy’s work.

Wonderful displays and interaction displays as well. Andy was an odd duck, as many artists are. Loved the movies we could watch. He led an interesting life and loved the museum. We spent 3 hours here.

Seven floors of the weird wild and wonderful. Covering all phases of his art career and life, the Warhol Museum is a nice way to learn, experience and reimagine art as you might kno wit. Interactive exhibits, film shorts and Andy's personal effects were highlights. Highly recommended for adults and teens, some NSFW stuff for little ones if you're worried about such things). Easy to get to, limited local parking, very clean and well staffed with knowledgeable people.

The museum gave a thorough and historical account of Andy Worhol's life. Be sure to read the intros on each floor. If you are an art enthusiast you will want to see this. He led an interesting life.

Not my kind of art, Not kid friendly, rude staff acting like cops, lots of nudity, do not recommend at all

This is the best Warhol Museum--not the one in Prague. Original artwork, more details about life in the U.S. and his rise to fame in the pop-art movement. Very good collection of thousands of items he collected.

I grew up in the 60s and Andy Warhol was a famous artist in the field of Pop Art. But going through the museum I learned he was so much more than that. He was a huge collector and the museum has 500,000 pieces of his collectibles. Some of the art work is pretty sexually explicit, so be prepared.

Not only art but the history of how Andy Warhol fit into society and molded it. I found the set up and storytelling as good as the art. A mix of interaction - recoding your own video clips spans walking recreations and art visually. Start on 7th floor work your way down.

Seeing the artwork and reading some of the history behind Warhol was very interesting. I went by myself as I didn't feel my kids would enjoy. Not sure it was worth the $20 admission fee but overall I did find it educational.

Seven floors of art and history of Andy Warhol. Depicting his life’s work featuring some of his iconic paintings. Must see the soup art.

It is always a wonderful time. I have visited many times but the most memorable was being at the Warhol for a wedding reception. Everything came to life!

It's difficult to explain how such a profound effect the Andy Warhol museum has on me. I'm not a particular avid fan of Warhol, more on the perifery. However after having visited the museum I'm much more of a fan.
Seven floors dedicated to Warhol art and his life. What struck me most was how technically brilliant he was as an artist. I had always thought of him as more of a pop phenomenon but no more. He was an extremely accomplished artist.
And to see his works in full, is just amazing.
The show left a powerful and lasting effect on me.
Not to be missed if you're visiting Pittsburgh. And allow ample time. We "rushed" thru in 3 hours.

Eddy, our Civil Engineer, was invited by one of his colleagues, Frank, to the United States of America, the western state of Pennsylvania, and the northeast of the country of the former steel capital, Steel City, Pittsburgh. Franck, after Station Duquesne Incline, Point State Park, Roberto Clemente Bridge, Senator John Heinz History Center, introduced Eddy to another museum in North America devoted to one artist, Andrew Warhola known as Andy Warhol (1928-1987 at 117 Sandusky St. This American artist and icon of Pop Art, and Modern Art, hails from Pittsburgh and this great museum - The Andy Warhol Museum - is entirely dedicated to him, in the North Shore neighborhood. This museum is one of four institutions in the Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh network, in collaboration with the Carnegie Institute of Dia Art Foundation and Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. A grand museum, opened in 1994, in a building that occupies 8,200 m2 or 88,000 feet, spread over 7 floors. An inventory of 17 exhibition galleries of this painter, advertising illustrator, music producer, author director, for 900 paintings, 2,000 works on paper , 77 sculptures, 4,000 photographs, 4,350 films and videos. This museum is known internationally and has received personalities such as Mick Jagger, Bono, First Lady Michelle Obama, Robert Downey Jr., Rupert Everett, Brooke Shields, Nelly Furtado, Willem Dafo, and many others.

Since I was in Pittsburgh and the museum was close to where I was staying I decided to pop in for a visit. I'm not a Warhol fan - but after going through the museum I have a new respect for him as an artist. I'd recommend it even if you're not a fan.

The Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, PA, is an absolute must-visit for art enthusiasts and anyone interested in pop culture. The museum's extensive collection spans Warhol's entire career, showcasing his iconic works and offering a deep dive into his creative process and influence. The exhibits are thoughtfully curated, providing fascinating insights into Warhol's life and the impact he had on the art world.

The museum itself is spacious and well-designed, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in Warhol's work and life. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall experience with their passion and expertise.

The museum has an interesting design for viewing. It is recommended that you start on the 7th floor and work your way down. That route follows Warhol's development as a person and as an artist.
Personally, I'm not a big fan of his art but the folks I went with are big fans. I loved the floating clouds. It was strangely and beautifully relaxing and ethereal.
Of all his work, my personal favorites were the portraits. I had never thought of him as a portrait artist before.
I learned a lot in the museum.

I made a special trip from Washington to Pittsburgh to see the Andy Warhol Museum and I was disappointed. When you walk in the lobby and lounge area is gray and drab. It certainly is not inviting or reflective of his work. My biggest criticism is the museum makes no mention of his romantic life, including his gay relationships. I read all of the information the museum presented about his life. There is NOTHING that says he was gay. Why would a full museum dedicated to his life and work chose to omit this? Should I have to Google his life or watch the documentary about him to find this out? Why is the museum continuing to foster the stigma of being gay? They show him in pictures with Keith Harring, who died of AIDSs, and not his friendship. They show the portraints he painted of drag performers. Beyond this, I feel the museum needs a serious refresh. It has an abundance of staff throughout the museum, but they just sit in chairs on each floor to make sure no one touches the art. I have been to more modern museums where the staff are eager to engage with visitors and provide additional information. This museum is not worth a special trip to see.

There was so much to learn about Andy Warhol. All I knew was about his pop art. Come in and discover about the man and his art.

I'm someone who prepares his visits relatively meticulously. I had observed that admission is 20 USD, but on Good Friday from 5 pm to 10 pm, the price is half (10 USD). I do not know whether this 50% reduction applies to all Fridays between 5 pm and 10 pm, but it applies to Good Friday 19 April 2019 between 5 pm and 10 pm. So I decided to visit this museum on Good Friday 19 April 2019 between 5 pm and 10 pm. The cashier first asked me 20 USD but seeing my surprise corrected himself to 10 USD. I heard him asking the visitor before me 10 USD. I do not think this was a slip of the tongue, but rather an intentional try. His body language was indicative. Weird experience.
The museum itself gives a comprehensive overview of the life and work of Andy Warhol.

Besides showcasing some of the most memorable of Warhol's pieces, this museum provide artifacts and insights into his genius!

Great exhibitions covering 6 floors. Very intetesting and colorfull ;) 20$ entrance fee. Bring quarter for the locker for your belongings.

this is a jewel of a museum. there are always new exhibits arriving and many videos to watch. there are interactive activities available. the gift shop is great. good for coffee, too

What can I say - Andy Warhol work is a "unique"classic on its own. Many floors in this museum each with a different style of his. A must visit for any fan or possible fan.

Probably reflecting the personality of Andy Warhol himself, the Warhol museum is more fun than most art museums, while at the same time presenting a great deal of the work and philosophy of Andy Warhol. One of the very few art museums focused on the work of only one artist, a visitor comes away feeling that she knows something of the artist as well as of his art. His family history as Slovakian immigrants, typically Pittsburgh, comes through as well. a video feed connects the museum with Andy's grave, located to the south of the city and accessible by the local light rail, the T.

Since studying Andy Warhol many years ago in college I’ve dreamed of going to this museum. This museum did not disappoint. It is the first art museum my children have ever visited. They both did well. Unfortunately, we were only able to stay for a short amount of time before heading to a family reunion. So we did a little speed walking through the museum to get in as much as possible in a short amount of time. We saw almost all the floors within 1.5 hours. We will be back again when we have more time to spend.

Beautifully curated and what an icon! A must-see if you're visiting Pittsburgh. Very good Covid protocols. Reserved advance tickets and masks required. We were staying right across the river and it was a beautiful walk across the bridge to get to the museum.

This is truly a fascinating museum. Seven floors of Andy Warhol art and artifacts greeted visitors. We spent 2 1/2 hours here and could have stayed longer. Frankly I was not a huge fan of Warhol growing up but have gained a respect for his genius over the last several years. No matter how much of his work you have seen at other museums it pales in comparison to the sheer volume of works offered at this comprehensive museum. Just a note the parking lot is just north of the building and to the right. It’s $8 to park there. There is an attendant there if you are concerned about your car. And let’s not forget to stop in the museum store where you will be tempted to come home with a treasure or two.

Ummmmm..... weird! That's the word I'll use for it.
Went with two adults and three kids (ages 11, 9 and 7).
Beware that there are images with genitalia, images of people hanging, many people all together "having a good time", a video of people kissing.

The best part was the couch in the entrance where you can pose like he is in his portrait.

There's another place with "clouds" aka mylar balloons that you can "interact with", but you have to "be gentle" which is just about impossible for kids.

Fine for the August incentive of "3 for free", but NOT worth $89. We were only there for 30 minutes.

OH! Actually, the best part were the $2 candy bars in the gift shop on the register!

A great place regardless of how much you know about Warhole. Found the story of his early years in Pittsburgh very interesting.

I didn't know too much about Andy Warhol, but was so glad we dedicated a morning to this incredible museum. Don't miss the movie on the main floor, with lots of good information about his life and art, then start at the top floor and work your way down. The design gives you many opportunities to rest and watch some of his films, or just sit and "eat up" (as he said) something you enjoy looking at. Save time for the gift shop too! Packed with creative, memorable gifts.

The short movie was a great introduction to what we’d see on 7 floors of the exhibit. Don’t skip it. This was a rewarding stop for an hour or so!

We went to Pittsburgh’s, The Warhol with timed tickets in hand. Masked, hand-sanitized, a healthily distanced we began on the 7th Floor of this old building and worked our way down.
I think Warhol enthusiasts and history buffs might really enjoy the art museum. It’s NOT for little kids.
The movie we had planned to see there was given a, “Mehh….” by our desk person. The memorabilia were cool and some of the art was wonderfully provocative. An entire floor was closed though, and no food or beverages were to be had. Gift shop’s cute, but not inspired. All in all, it was ok.

Learned so much about this amazing photographer, painter, record producer, etc. I hadn't realized how many different creative works he was involved in. The layout is perfect as it takes you down 7 floors with each floor covering a different decade of his work.

I was always more amused than appreciative of Andy Warhol's art. After this comprehensive visit to the Warhol Museum, I have a completely different perspective. He truly blended technology (screen printing), pop culture, celebrity culture, even self-promotion, into a new contemporary art form. I highly recommend this multi-floor experience to gain perspective on Warhol, his humble Pittsburgh roots, and his passion for innovation. Plus there's lots of pictures!

Look, I get it you can't have it all.. but if you have ZERO of the most week known works have a floor dedicated to REPRINTS and don't hide it.. very very very disappointing that the gift shop knows what people want , more than the actual museum

This is the largest museum in the USA dedicated to a single artist. I enjoyed how the museum is set up. You start on the 7th floor for his earliest works, and as you travel down the floors you progress thru time. There are parts of the museum that are interactive which really made it a fun trip for all. My only disappointment was that the audio sets for the tour were not available...then found out they only pertain to the 7th floor. Make sure you go to the screening room and have a 5 minute screen test done that gets emailed to you almost immediately.

The dictionary defines sensational as "of or relating to sensation or the senses." So, yes, the Warhol museum rocked our senses. Amazing paintings, sculptures, videos and colors abound in the seven story building that houses the museum. One of our favorite exhibitions was a room filled with mylar-like "clouds" and a wind source. Visitors are encouraged to interact with the clouds.
Also, there are many opportunities to learn about Warhol, his life and his amazing works of art.

This is a cool museum to visit if you are a fan of Andy Warhol or art in general. I am typically not into art or galleries, but the exhibits do a great job of bringing the audience into Warhol's life and better understand his work. It is a bit expensive so perhaps I'd recommend it only if you are familiar with or a fan of Warhol.

I was attending a conference and a sponsor took us for an after-hour tour. It was fabulous. The tour guide was excellent and made the tour very interesting. I loved seeing the art throughout his career and learning about his family.

This museum is an amazing display of Andy's work and life. There are seven floors to absorb, and they rotate exhibits. So even if you've been there before, check for current exhibits, and treat yourself to another visit. Wonderful place!

I used a senior discount to get in, which means that I remember so much about the tremendous impact that Andy Warhol had on the American art scene in the 1960s and 1970s. I started on the 7th floor as recommended, which allowed me to follow the development of his career. I wasn't particularly interested in his movies so gave scant attention to several display areas. The museum shop has lots of interesting stuff but nothing I really wanted (except a backpack, for some reason, which I would never use and did not buy), I think the best thing, though, is the Brillo Box hut in the adjacent car park that houses the man who sells you a parking ticket. That is the lasting impact of Andy Warhol.

Really liked the museum. Start at the top floor and work your way down. Bathrooms are on the 2nd and basement floor. Take your time and really take in all the colors and the people around you. The staff was friendly. Really liked the gift shop! Wish we had done the silk screen and art fun in the basement!

Great space with ever changing exhibits. Proof positive that Art is a living masterpiece.
Enjoyed to art and learned more about the artist.

I was so excited to find this museum! What an incredible collection! It was really cool to get to see the full scope of his work throughout his life and to get to see inside his process. Highly recommend!

Nice introductory movie about Warhol...started at the top floor and things were very engaging; but as we went lower, to his last few years of life, there seemed to be less and less of his works.....a lot of empty space....where are all of his works?...so we were disappointed,,expecting more of his works....it is a clean facility...the cafe was very limited in its offerings...

If you are into fine arts, you probably would not like this museum. I felt a little disappointed, and I don't feel this is worth the admission of $20. The whole 7 floors of art works, only a handful piqued my interest. There were tons of pictures of celebrities, and some back stories about them, but they do not belong in a museum. I feel like they are just fillers for the space.

I don't really understand contemporary arts, so I am just going to stop writing now. Will not return for a second time, that is for sure.

Ok so we all know about the soup cans and Brillo boxes, but....there is so much more! Pencil sketches, watercolors, collaborations with other artists. 6 floors of the museum are devoted to Warhol, the second floor has a collection from several other artists so feel free to skip that floor. The gift shop was a little disappointing with more novelty gifts than Warhol related gifts. Happy I went as well as all of the friends that went. Don't forget to ask for the admission discounts available.

This museum is a lot of fun and it is really cool to see the iconic Warhol works that include the soup cans, Chairman Mao, Marilyn Monroe, and many others. Warhol was from Pittsburgh and this is one of a few American museums to focus on a single American artist.

Warhol was one of the first artists to recognize the power of celebrity culture and his art is more relevant than ever today.

Museum is organized in a chronological order that shows Warhol’s growth as an artist and how his works changed over his life.

Took my two kids here (9 and 12) and while this was probably not their favorite place we visited, found many of Warhol’s works were understandable and accessible to them.

Takes about a couple hours to see it all. Located near PNC Park in the North Shore neighborhood. Parking lot kitty corner from museum and costs $8 to park (no cash). They let you take pictures here too, which is a nice touch.

Tour this museum from the top floor down and learn much about Warhol’s beginnings, triumphs and tragedies

This is a seven-floor museum. The staff recommends starting at the top floor and working your way down. It is arranged chronologically for the most part. There is an elevator available if you can't do all those steps. We spent three hours here, but could have spent much longer. My teenage children really enjoyed learning more about Warhol.

I am one of those people who has said "anyone could do that" about his work. I stand corrected. If you are inclined to read, watch videos and ask you learn so much and get a much richer picture. For instance I had no idea that he was a phenomenal success straight out of art school doing straight foward adversting drawings. Or that his family was so humble and religious and just went with what he did after dropping the last letter of his name. And not only so much of his art but well spaced to take it in and rich commentary and varieties of artifacts and media. If you could only do one thing in Pittsburgh it would be this, although there is some serious competition.

We were a little disappointed, 2 floors were closed so we did not get to see everything. Did not know this until we got there. The gift shop was good, lots of different things to choose from.

A realt food museum which gives you a broad knowledge of Andy Warhol. The museum takes you throughhis life cronologically and have a large collection with artifacts from the different periods. Liked it very much.

Very walkable if you are staying in city
Starts when he was born and goes through his training and development
Very interesting
Highly recommend

The Warhol Museum is really well done. The curator stood an excellent job. It is best to start on the seventh floor and work your way down so that you see the work chronologically. Much of Warhol’s work looks even more impressive in person. Regular adult admission is $25 and I can say this is one of the few museums I have visited that was worth the admission. Warhol was complex, and his place in history, pop culture, and art is often misunderstood. This museum showcases the work and his life over several decades, and certainly made my appreciation much greater.

Interesting information on his life and various styles of art over the years. Not all of us most famous work is on display - but certainly enough. Fun event space for a wedding.

This is a nice, well put together museum of the life and art of Andy Warhol. We arrived late in the day (3:30), after walking all over the place, and visiting Randyland and The Mattress Factory. We may have enjoyed it more had we arrived earlier in the morning without walking all over the city!!! Despite that-we did enjoy our visit!
We did not know about the movie on the first floor-and wish we had watched it before heading to the 7th floor. You start at the top, with Andy's early life-and work your way down the stairs.
We paid $20 admission-and for us it seemed too much. The senior rate is $10, and we were a few months shy of that!
The Andy Warhol Museum is the only art museum dedicated to a single artist. He deserved this honor!

This was a great way to become familiar with Andy Warhol's work. Visit on Friday evening for half price.

Collection of junk and degenerate graphic art pieces. Apparently, Warhol hoarded many flea market items, and shoes. Movies of what!? Never understood the fascination with Warhol. Looks like high school graphics artwork. To make it better, art school wannabes stand guard on each floor to make sure your face mask stays in place. Unless you're dropping a twenty for scones and coffees. I went, I saw. Ehhh.

There is a lot more to see than I anticipated. Give yourself at least two hours to see all the aspects of his life and art. Really an interesting guy.

If you are a fan of Andy you can't miss this amazing museum. It took me 3 hours to explore this 7 story museum devoted to the one and only Mr. Warhola. Clean and contemporary building. Each level is a period of his life with lots of information to read. I saw some of his artwork I did not know even existing and learned about some of his other creative hobbies. Even if you are not a big fan, check this out and you may just become one!

I really enjoyed visiting the Andy Warhol Museum, but I think it's best to be prepared that this is more a story of his life than a retrospective of his most famous work. The museum provides a lot of information about Andy from the early days of his childhood and career. I got a much better sense of who he was. There are a lot of drawings from his early career and a sampling of works throughout each stage of his career. I guess the reality is that most of his famous pieces are in galleries and private collections around the world. There are large exhibits on his films that you can watch (a little too out there for me!), and a great portrait gallery.

I also saw the Warhol exhibition and the Whitney in New York recently and found the two to be great companion pieces. The Warhol Museum definitely went into greater depth in many areas and the Whitney allowed access to additional pieces of art.

Even if you're not a huge Warhol fan (which I'm not) it was worth the visit to get a nice review of the history behind the phenomenon. The museum was well laid out and presented in a good way from top floor to bottom. We were a little disappointed that the dedicated parking lot was being used for overpriced parking for the baseball game nearby and full but that takes it down a notch.

Very nice and clean museum, hand sanitizers and staff everywhere, they are covid friendly with good distance protocols and mandatory masks. The art and history was nice, just not my cup of tea. Not very kid friendly, there are some nude artwork here, the lower kids area was closed off. If you're a Warhol fan you'll enjoy this. Beware of the parking lot, it's $8 and the parking attendant is very rude.

I visited this museum because my wife thought it would be a good spot. I really liked the place. It reminded me of the 80's when I became aware of this artist. He really could make something ordinary extra ordinary. They had many of the works of art that I had hear about or seen in magazines. His self portrait "Fright Wig" was cool to see. The museum had a room where they had these silver pillow sized balloons floating around, the work was titled Silver clouds. Pretty interesting. The museum had an exhibit with an artist friend of his called KAWS. He takes cartoons and makes them slightly different and well it works. Fun place, down the street from the Pittsburgh Pirates Stadium.

Had to see his art. Museum is easy to navigate starting from the top floor, and the floors are arranged by decades. A must see for Western Pennsylvanias, who never seem to tour things in their own back yard.

Andy Warhol was a most interesting man with unique tastes, perspectives and views on all things art. This was great to visit - especially the VELVET UNDERGROUND section as Andy Warhol discovered, funded, photographed, produced and managed THE VELVET UNDERGROUND which made singer Lou Reed a superstar that would continue for the next 5+ decades

Super cool museum. Seven floors all dedicated to the amazing Andy Warhol. Covid precautions were taken very seriously. The staff was friendly and the museum is open until 10:00 pm! On Fridays their admission is 50% off so take advantage of that.

i thought it would be a cool place to take My teens. $60 and we got through 7 floors in 1/2 an hour.

I thought it was nice seeing all his works of art but my kids didn’t seem to engaged. Oh well .

As per the title.
Private museum dedicated to the great artist born in this city.
It is a downtown building on five floors. Entrance fee (2024) without reduction for adults at $25
To start the visit you climb to the fifth floor then left the descent...
The various plans describe Warhol’s personal and artistic life from the beginning, to the success of the last period before his premature death.
Visited in 2/3 hours.
Often there are combined events or retrospectives of other artists however friends or collaborators of Andy
Recommend a ride

A must go on to-do list in Pittsburgh. Impresssive exhibits; visitor-friendly layout. Great learning and enjoying experience!

I would give Andy Warhol Museum No. 1 place to visit in Pittsburgh. I haven't visited other 9 places, but I had an excellent experience, better than I expected. I have got good 2 min instructions at the reception how to explore the Museum - including "start from floor 7 and go down". All floors are so interesting that I had to limit myself in time because I had only 2 hours to spend here.
I will definitely will come back when I have a chance.

My husband and I went here while visiting Pittsburgh. I knew of Andy Warhol and have always enjoyed hearing about his artwork, but did not know much about his life. You start on the 7th floor and work your way down while exploring his life and artwork. Some of the artwork and photographs do have nudity, so be forewarned, if you have young children. The museum took about 2 hours to see. It has a parking lot across the street for $8. They have a cafe with food. The gift shop had a lot to offer.

When in Pittsburgh, they say you should tour the Andy Warhol museum. I would say ONLY if you are already an Andy Warhol fan. The positives—it is very organized and chronicles his life quite well. The negatives—some of Warhol’s most famous work, like the Cambell’s soup cans, aren’t here. Some of the art work and displays are strange, even if you like modern art. Example” some of the large screens showed various videos of people kissing. Um, okay. Warhol was eccentric and the $8 parking and $20 ticket fee is just not worth it to see all of his odd work. As I mentioned, his most famous work isn’t here. Unless you are a huge Warhol fan, you won’t miss much by skipping it.

Okay I’m not a big fan of Andy Warhol but wanted to see the museum. Glad I visited but honestly his art doesn’t appeal to me. Calling him an artist is a stretch. He staged, copied, photographed and created displays. I appreciate the states of others so for me it was an average visit. The room with balloons? Enough said.

We were hoping to become more familiar with the life and times of Andy Warhol and this 6 floor museum did not disappoint! The museum is well curated and very affordable. It was fun to follow Warhol's journey through life and see the cultural shifts from the times that intersected our own journey. The current exhibit covering the Velvet Underground & Nico was really enjoyable.

i knew it was a great museum when the first time we came, we wanted to go right back in as we were leaving. Our second trip years later did not disappoint.

Marilyn is missing but still worth a visit. Especially if you want to understand why the soup cans are iconic.

I had time to spend by myself so went to the museum. I was lucky to jump on a tour and so learned a lot I would no have learned. It was interesting. I also ate at the cafe in the lobby. Door was very good.

I enjoyed this far more than I expected, as I'd only visited while in Pittsburgh for other reasons. The scale of the museum and scope of the exhibits, plus the detail in the accompanying explanatory displays, meant that I barely got around it in 3 hours and could have done with another hour.
Even someone who is not a Warhol fan can find a lor of fascinating information regarding the pop art scene and his extensive circle of collaborators.
Good points:
+ Considerable scope of the content, all well described by notes
+ Spacious gallery areas
+ Nice cafe and large gift store at street level
Not so good points:
- Relatively expensive ticket prices (I paid 20 usd)

We had a good time waling the 7 floors of this museum. The bottom floor has a great little area to rest and have a tea/coffee and a snack afterward. We thought that Warhol’s work was unique and did speak to the revolution of art and the LGBTQ awakening. Although, the floor with the urine prints could have been left out as it was a little too edgy.

A few years back I saw a Warhol retrospective at my local art museum. This museum was mostly a larger version of that exhibit. I was hoping for more on the life of Andy Warhol and about The Factory and his muses during that period. It was all only mentioned in passing. While the museum covers 7 stories, the floor spaces aren't overly large, so they are covered rather quickly. I think the $20 entrance was a bit much for the experience.

Really a great museum, I learned so much about this revered artist. In addition to all the floors of art and information about Warhol, they’re various workshops, such as silk screening classes, movies, and interactive sections.

We were very familiar with his art, but learned so much about his personal life and people he came in contact with. Seven floors; a lot to see.

We went to the museum as in the area, the curator does an excellent job in mixing together his pieces. The museum starts with his early life, school drawings etc , goes through silk screens to celebrity portraits and movies. There are tactile exhibits for the visually impaired. Parking is around the corner and costs $8. The museum shop is interesting as well with everything from skateboards to books.

Great view of Andy Warhol's life. He was much more than soup cans. My hope is that Americans can live their truth openly one day everywhere.

I didn’t know much about Andy Warhol before going other than a few of his famous portraits. I now know much more! Very interesting man with many talents. Well worth the time.

Visited today and I loved the silver clouds installation. I’m so happy we were able to view “cry baby” by Devan Shimoyama! Incredible artist! The factory aspect was our favorite as we got hands on experience on making a silk screen! Paul was the best!! Thanks Paul! Great visit

We started on the 7th floor and made our way down one floor at a time. Beautiful exhibits and a fun little gift shop and lobby.

Surprisingly pleasant and inspiring visit. In town for a wedding - easy walkable location just across the river; wonderful exhibits, helpful and friendly staff and very interesting historical contexts. Would definitely recommend this museum even if you're not particularly a Warhol fan.

Such a wonderful museum! I loved how each floor was a different decade! So much art crammed on these floors. We spent about 3 hours there, all went our spectate ways and explored at our own pace. Very cool computer exhibit with recently discovered digital art Andy created. A must see when in Pittsburgh!

Great experience as usual.As a member I was able to get everybody in at no extra charge.Employees where extra nice.Gave us a tour at no extra charge.Absolutely amazing.Also bought a few gifts at their large gift store.

The museum exhibits are on 7 floors. They've really taken a multi-media approach, as did Warhol. His story unfolds chronologically as you work your way down from the top floor.

It is well done and there is so much room to move around that social distancing is not a problem.

I learned a lot and enjoyed the museum.

This was a cool experience, and it was great to see all of the history and great art. There are lots of great pieces and you are even able to make your own screen print at the end.

Highly recommend this as a stopping point. I learned so much about Warhol’s life. Museum is the perfect size (figure 2 hrs). In a great spot to them aeee the conservatory

One of the highlights of the museum was a whimsical pieces on the 2nd floor by a rotating guest artist. I did enjoy reading some of the background on different Warhol displays. My teenager enjoyed but younger children would most likely be bored.

it is just so close the pnc park/sports stadiums/riverwalk; a great look into a creative genius w a lot of varied mediums on display "always looking at both the highlights of stardom and the frailty of it too" can say the same for his soup cans; on one hand spinning the media frenzy w the import of BRANDS and ads

I honestly can't believe more parents aren't disappointed by the content in this museum. We had two 10 year old boys with us and the content was FAR from appropriate. I don't know anything about Andy Warhol other than the fact that he was an artist. I can appreciate that sometimes that includes adult content but since there was ABSOLUTELY NO indication of that I assumed we were fine. WRONG. We apparently never even made it to the floor that contained most of the adult content but there was enough on the first 3 floors for us. We threw away $100 and left after 30 minutes. BUYER BEWARE! From purchasing the tickets online to checking in at the front desk there was nothing that indicating our children would see anything inappropriate. Dont worry though, I didnt take my purse with me, she made sure of that! 🙄 I honestly would've been fine with if it we had been warned from the start the areas to avoid but we weren't. Again, I'm not an Andy Warhol expert so I had no idea that some of his work included items that aren't appropriate for children. I'm stunned they've had this museum open for this long and very few people have been bothered by this.

If you are into painting that show is most impressive and interesting museum and has a good and interesting overlook on the artist.

It is said that the personal life and the works a man has done is interconnected. What really impressed me here is I realized that Andy Warhol took advantage of the commercial world for his art productions. Through this process, the artist can gain more money and fame from his art and his art becomes more popularized among laymen. Whether it is good for art in future? Nobody knows.

Loved this museum- so well organized and easy to navigate. Start on the top floor, read the descriptions, watch the 15min introduction movie, and you’ll be finished in about 2 hours. Andy was quite a character: interesting childhood, then reaching adulthood rubbing noses with dozens of famous people. His illustrations for I Miller shoe manufacturer and silkscreens of Elizabeth Taylor and Marilyn Monroe are amazing. I also enjoyed watching the videos showing his different techniques.

This road trip was without plans, and we found ourselves heading to Pittsburgh on a Friday night. Didn't even know about this museum. It is great! While we both like Andy Warhol, we don't know much about him. This museum has an excellent floor by floor narrative spanning different years, and each floor's collection reflects those years.

We learned a lot and had a thoroughly wonderful evening!

What a treat this museum is! It offers details about Warhol’s life as well as beautiful exhibits of his very special art! The gift shop has so many fun items!! Plan to spend about 2 hours.

I went to this museum specifically because I wanted to see a lot of Warhol art. It is great for that, and it's also great if you want to learn more about Warhol himself. It's an exhaustive museum where you could spend half a day at least if you read everything available to you. If you, like me, are going for the art itself, it's doable comfortable in 90 minutes or so, with a bit of reading here and there. Highly recommend!

Website said nothing about having to make reservations to get in. We arrived and were told it was sold out for the day and after telling them the web site never said that, was just told, they know. They did not try to make it better with a coupon or free future pass. Poor customer service.

We stopped in a a Sunday and there was no admission so i am not sure if that is a Sunday thing or a 25th anniversary deal but it was interesting to learn about Andy Warhol and how he went from a painter to a filmmaker back to a painter before he pasted away at 58. I am more of a jock and still enjoyed most of the exhibition. It is 7 floors and you start on the 7th floor and work your way down. There is a elavtor and the museum is closed on Mondays.

This place is popular among certain demographics. Some people will like something even if it isn't good for the simple fact that they can identify with it. Liberal arts students, eccentrics, and the LGBTQ communities will say that this place is phenomenal. In all actuality, it's below average at best. There are barely any authentic art pieces there. The art that is there is underwhelming. They price for admission and parking is ridiculous. The people working there think they're working at a high end museum in NYC. They're rude and pretentious. It's really a joke if you can look at it from an outside perspective. Do not waste your money.

My husband and I were in town for baseball games We fit this in before a day game and it was great. The staff was very kind. Worth the ticket price of admission.

We visited the museum just after breakfast on a Sunday. The museum was not that crowded. We spent a few hours going through the many floors. I would allow at least 2 hours minimum, but you could spend a morning or even an afternoon very easily. So much to see. I was pleasantly surprised by the exhibits and would visit again.

So detailed and interesting with info of Andy's life and many of his creations. 8 floors to view. Has elevators. Well displayed. Guards in many rooms. What an interesting creator Warhol was.,

Very detailed collection in a well organized chronological order. Would take more than 1 visit to really soak it all in. Great gift shop.

A great museum. Walked through seven floors of amazing Warhol history. We were able to walk to the museum from our hotel taking in the spectacular area.

Wonderful Experience- fascinating artist and so many pieces of art to see. The docent recommended starting on the top floor and working your way down through the exhibits. Great recommendation and I would like to add that the film on the first floor is great. I wish I would have watched it first before starting my exhibit experience.

This was not my favorite of museums and I doubt I would return. If you're a fan of Andy Warhol, you'll be happy. If you are hoping the learn more and perhaps become a fan, you may not be impressed. We did learn some interesting things about Andy Warhol. I learned that much of his art is not paintings, but film. Many of his movies were playing in small rooms. Everything is displayed nice and art is described. There is a parking lot across the street and buses along the route. The entire museum is handicap accessible.

While the information on Warhol’s life was very interesting and enlightening, there were two floors that were completely closed. Some prominent and recognized works (Marilyn and Queen Elizabeth) were not on display. And the staff was dogging people, giving conflicting information and two were laughing and joking amongst themselves ( and these were twenty-something “ security” ) so as to distract from reading information about the exhibitions. It took away from the overall experience, over and above the art, highlighted with curios Warhol kept from his life and an insightful film about his process and motivations. Could be improved by posting on the website or even at the door that a significant portion of the museum was being set up for a new exhibit, and that the staff members stop acting like post adolescent masters of their small domain.

We visited the museum on a Tuesday afternoon. We spent a few hours enjoying the art of Andy Warhol. There are 7 floors of the different eras of his work. The exhibition was Kim Gordon -Lo-Fi Glamour. I really enjoyed the entrance where you can sit on the couch, below the picture of him sitting on the same couch. You can take pictures on also your time. Admission was $20.00 Adult $10.00 Senior.

Went on the advice of friends. Warhol had an interesting life and his art reflects the times in which he lived.

This place is trippy, hard-hitting, and overall enjoyable! Check out the small cafe on the 1st level beforehand and soak in the atmosphere!

You will enjoy this more if you are a fan of Warhol. I happen to enjoy his work and was happy to see what they had on display. There are interactive exhibits which are also fun to play around with like Screen Test" or the floating silver mylar pillows. I was sad that some of my favorite pieces by him were not present, but still enjoyed what I did see overall. If you are comimg with children you may wish to skip the film portion.

This place has 7 stories of Andy's life from childhood to death. Some classic stuff, some bizarre stuff. Very unique gift shop. Very friendly staff at the reception desk.

Though I am well familiar with the basics of Andy Warhol (like the Soup Cans and similar Pop Art), this museum took things to the next level. Seven entire floors of artwork, personal history, and the deepest look into an individual artist I've ever seen. My wife, who has a degree in Art History, said it moved her as much as a museum ever has. The "pillows" installation was fantastic and the interactive exhibits were first-rate.

The museum takes you through Warhol's life chronologically, starting with the top floor. You can watch a movie, maybe 15 minutes long. We spent about two hours

This artist seems to have something for anyone. The balloon room clouds of Mylar were fun to bop. My favorite was the images of the cats, dogs and the elephant. There is an elevator if needed and your tour begins upstairs.

Excellent museum! Fun and informative. Great gift shop. Good layout. Only suggestion would be I wish they would have had more Warhols on display.

I went to the museum to see a few things about Andy Warhol and his life. I walked away with an unbelievable respect for the times and challenges and relationships that were cultivated through Andy Warhol. It’s a bit edgy it’s a bit raw it’s a bit humbling. Everyone knows that to be an artist the most important thing to do is just create art. And I know he did that. He was very busy, and created some amazing works. I was thoroughly entertained by the variety of people who were going through the museum. Definitely worth the stop.
I’ve been to three Carnegie museums on this trip and because earlier in the year I bought a membership it was free to get in. It’s the best way to see a lot of museums in the city like Pittsburgh. Support the arts. Go go go

We visited this museum to see the largest collection of his work in the world. It did not disappoint. In fact, we were more familiar with his pop-art work and came away with a much better appreciation for his talent, his training, and his innovative approach to art.

We didn’t have children with us, but we were impressed that there were lots of fun things for kids to do.

The museum presents a comprehensive overview of Warhol’s life and art practice. I’m not a huge fan of his work but it was interesting to see how his works have become icons as did the artist himself.

Enjoyed this museum very much as a family interested in modern art. Busy this weekend so had to book a few sessions ahead to adhere to social distancing to stay safe. 7 levels of exhibition with a mixture or art, film and interactivity too. The only thing that I would suggest is the young folk on each levels supporting social distancing should pay more attention to the visitors than their phones. Gift shop was great.

i didn't know a whole lot about him before visiting, and i can see how avant garde he was in his time.

The museum is great! Andy's artwork in a variety of media but also a great wealth of info about his life and family. Fascinating from start to finish. Nice cafe on the first floor.

My 20YO son and I weren't Warhol fans but we are open-minded and we figured it's a Pittsburgh thing, so 'when in Rome'... and it wasn't worth it. At least I got the student rate for him so it only cost me $30, not $40. And now we know for sure we are not interested in his art. Or his movies - on which much time is wasted.

One of the floors was closed, so we didn't see whatever was there. If you think you're going to see any iconic Campbell's Soup art and take your Instagram selfie, think again. It's not there. There were only a few items of interest to either of us in the entire museum and most of them were in the early years. The 70's are even weirder than I remember.

To save the day, we drove over to the Carnegie Art/Science museum and spent another $30+, but at least that was worth it.

We were lucky enough to hear an 11am talk by Andy's nephew, which added so much to the experience. There is so much more to Andy Warhol than Campbell's soup cans. The museum is 7 floors and there's so much to see and interact with. Well worth the trip.

What a great place to visit.

Make time to visit and enjoy the museum.

I do know what I was expecting but got a different aspect of what I was expecting.

The exhibits were fantastic.

Note: if you do not have time for the exhibit visit the shop, there is charge to enter.

A must visit.

This museum was so full of information about Andy Warhol and art/life in the 20th century. This is a necessary stop for any trip to Pittsburgh. The display of art by high schoolers was a plus- made me feel hopeful for the future.

We loved our August trip to the Warhol Museum. I have just one quibble. I had hoped to learn more about the pop art movement in general -- who comprised it, how long did it last, who influenced whom, etc. This material was probably there if you searched,but it was not highlighted sufficiently for me. But the museum was well worth the time and money.

Very popular tourist destination. My step gone through has been there are numerous times and loves it. As a rideshare driver I am constantly giving people rides there and they love the museum.

We enjoyed our visit to the Andy Warhol. You learn quite a bit about the artist and his artistic development. The “Factory” could be covered more in depth, though, and it would be helpful to show at least a little of the pop art by others so that there’s more of a context for Warhol’s work.

We were directed to start on 7th floor then work our way down, which is chronological order. Should have watched the movie 1st then toured the museum. Docents were very knowledgeable.

this was the most interesting thing we did in Pittsburgh. The building was of no archetectual significance, but the contents were fabulous. The exhibits were very well curated, the explanations well researched and written and the displays excellent . Although lacking in desplaying Warhols best and most famous works, the museum was teriffic and did an outstanding job with its collection.

I am not a major Warhol fan, but went because I wanted to know more about this quirky artist. Their collection of Warhol’s work includes over 1000 prints, 77 sculptures, over 4000 photographs, videos and films.

Also on display are 610 of his boxed time capsules with one open to show the simple things he was saving.
This is the largest museum in North America devoted to one artist. Start your visit from the top and walk down the stairs after each floor. This will give you a chronological progression of his work

I thought the museum was a good reflection of the different styles of Warhol, but have a really hard time recommending it. I felt the galleries were disorganized, hard to tell where to ‘start’ on each floor as to follow the progression of his career. I also was frustrated that we were instructed to start on the 7th floor instead of starting with the movie on the 1st floor that details his life. The traveling exhibit on floor 2 was also extremely strange and would not recommend it. I was disappointed as I felt like a traveling exhibit of Warhol I had seen about 10 years ago was much better than this museum dedicated to him.

This museum was our first stop in the city and they didn’t tell us at check in that the entire 4th floor was closed which contains the 1980s. It cut the visit short and left us hanging with information about the end of his life. His collection is interesting and varied and the museum laid it out chronologically which was helpful. I would recommend a visit but make sure that every floor is open.

Like any single artist museum you gain insight into Warhol's art practice that goes well beyond what you can learn in a major museum or in books.

Andy Warhol was a genius with his advertising and knack for connecting with pop culture. Visiting the museum helps show how he did this for several decades. I loved his screen print diptychs of various friends and celebrities. This is a speciality art museum for sure but Warhol did enough to keep your attention and I'd definitely recommend a visit. The gift shop is above average.

There were some interesting pieces, but overall it was a so so experience. Was out of there in under an hour. There are 7 floors here, though each is small. I would suggest starting at the top and working your way down. I have been to many art museums and this one was so so. I guess you either like it or not. Didn't care for some of the items in the gift shop, like the socks with profanity. Maybe to give as a gift for someone you don't like?

We visited on a Friday night and it was half price! If you’re visiting with kids this is a great option because ours wanted to rush through it. Warhol fans will find much to love here. The adults in the group found it interesting!

I wish I had more time to soak in all the information. What a wonderful exhibit. I highly recommend taking the time to explore this place.

Because they are open late on Fridays, this was my teen and I's first stop on our weekend in Pittsburgh. You start on the top floor and work your way down. My teen found it very interesting even though she didn't know too much about Warhol beforehand. The staff was also very helpful including telling us about an event nearby. Parking was both reasonable and close. We took a ton of pictures and highly enjoyed that some of the exhibits were interactive. I would definitely visit again with the entire family.

Spread out over 7 floors, moving downwards in a chronological order, this museum has so much Andy Warhol artwork on show, you need at least 2 hours to have a good look.
There are early family photographs, some of the early advertising work, and on to many famous images, including Marilyn Monroe, Jackie Kennedy, 11 silver Elvis Presley, Judy Garland, Marlon Brando, Mick Jagger, Julia Warhola, Brillo boxes, Campbells soup cans.
Also on show : Some of his film and video work, as well as images from the $ series, the death and disaster series, the male figure, his enormous skull images, and the religious artwork from near the end of his life. The only thing lacking was a guide booklet, as the attendant said an app was available. The book/giftshop is quite expensive, in my opinion.

I have a newfound appreciation for the work of Andy Warhol. Seeing how he developed as an artist and the impact he had was eye opening. Don’t miss the fun, eclectic gift shop. Definitely worth a visit!

I would not say that I’m a huge museum fan but I actually liked this one. They have a good mix of small and large works, a nice flow through his early work into the later stuff and some cool interactive areas. Definitely worth the $20!

The museum is on seven floors but its not intimidating... each of the five floors that have exhibit space features about three relatively small galleries. Easy to see the entire museum space in under two hours. Start at the seventh floor and you work through the life and work of Andy Warhol in chronological order. Loved the KAWS exhibit but the Warhol work, though very interesting to see in the order in which he lived it, was more interesting for his biography than for the art. The works exhibited were actually a bit underwhelming... have seen better pieces in other museums. Nevertheless, well worth the visit to learn more about the artist's life.

A great way to spend a Saturday morning, strolling through this museum. I was not a fan of Andy Warhol when i went into this but really enjoyed it. This is the largest museum in the world dedicated to one single artist. (7 floors) staff were great, there is a nice cafe in the lobby to grab a drink and snack. The museum is well spread out and not crowded.

Some closed levels for the preparation of other exhibitions. A nice place to visit in a city where there are not many things to do: Warhol himself chose New York from the age of 18 not to stay...

not too pricey, many floors but everything is very spread out. could room is a cool hands on touch..

A small but EXCELLENT museum. Well organized with each floor an era for the artists - great works of art and LOTS of information about Warhol: certainly things I never new about him. Certainly work a visit if you are in Pittsburg. [Note - affiliated withe the Carnegie Museum complex).

This is the largest collection of Andy Warhol in the world. It has the Marilyn Monroe work and 7 floors of other works. Worth the visit for sure if you like his work. He was born in Pittsburgh!
Thus the reason for the museum being here instead of New York!

This museum is very well done, very artistic of course but very elegant as well. It has all of the collections of Warhol through the different years on each floor representing the different error. They also highlight a special artist on the lower floor so different times of the year. $20 no parking nearby so find a public parking place in the North Shore area Pittsburgh. Lot the art students here but a lot of art connoisseurs also. Nice little gift shop on the lower level. Very well laid out with lots of art but lots of history on Warhol too. Very clean with security and docents on each level.

Very enjoyable. It was nice to see Warhol works beyond the Campbell's Soup prints. Tickets were a bit expensive, but worth it.

I am not a Warhol fan. I just don't get him or most modern art. However, my wife is a fan. My 11-year-old twin daughters were spilt; one loved the "edginess" while the other found it "inappropriate" for kids. For all the difference in opinion in just our group, I believe the museum did exactly what it set out to do. Love him or hate him, it is interesting to visit and I did learn a lot about him. I was also able to explain some art in the context of growing up in NYC during the late 70s and 80s showing how Warhol was also a product of the times. It may be a bit much for younger kids or those who are more sensitive about subject matter, but for most, they should find some new art they can admire.

Well-organized and curated museum dedicated to the Pittsburgh-born Warhol. Chronologically laid out (from top floor down) with lots of interesting displays. We were a tad disappointed the 11 am tour we’d hoped to attend onto was actually a private one (for CA college students). However the movie (running on a loop on the ground floor and I’d suggest you see it first before heading up to the 7th floor to start your visit) provided a good summary on Warhol’s life and work.

My wife & I had an hour to see the Museum while driving thru Pittsburgh on the way to Ohio for the NFL HOF Induction Ceremonies. I had read reviews that said they recommended 2 hours to see it. Even in the 1, we did see it all. Maybe we rushed through a few of the exhibits, but not many, and didn't read every description of every piece of art but it was totally worth it. It also was a good break 4 hours into our trip from Philly. We have been Pitts a few times but never had the chance to see this. Glad we did this time.

What a wonderful tribute the Andy Warhol Museum is to one of Pittsburgh’s most famous citizens. One cannot help but be inspired by Warhol and his forward thinking genius. At the cutting edge of technology, he made his art relevant and brilliant over the course of four decades. That’s just impressive! The seven stories of Warhol scratches the surface of his impact upon modern pop culture. The current special exhibition on how religion impacted Andy really provides insight to the artist. It’s wonderful. Give yourself at least three hours to enjoy the Museum, even that will feel rushed. I can’t recommend this place enough!!

One of the items on our must list was the warhol museum. My cousins and I had a great time roaming around this museum and learning about an artist that none of us knew that much about. The exhibits are interactive, which was also a fun surprise and there is an area for kids we found interesting.

Visiting the Warhol Museum has been on my bucket list for a very long time and I was not disappointed. The museum is arranged chronologically from the top floor down. I loved seeing pieces that were not as mainstream as those you typically see. I was especially intrigued by the time capsules, sketch book displays, and the silver clouds display. When you enter, it can be confusing because the ticket desk is tucked off to the left and not readily visible. Excellent gift shop on the main floor too!

As a fellow Pittsburgh native of Subcarpathian Rusyn origin, this was a must-see. It is a well curated combination of the artist’s work and his life. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Nice building and good collection of works. However, I would say that the Warhol exhibit I saw not long ago at the Art Institute of Chicago did a much better job describing the life of the artist. They hardly mention he was gay at all. I think the art holds up well when you see it full size in person.

Great afternoon walk through. The museums has a lot to see and is very interesting and interactive. A must do for art lovers and even a great stop for those that aren't fully into art but like history.

Tremendous array of Warhol's work, but the special exhibits are well worth a stop. Currently, the Revelations display is an eye-opener. Very glad I had the chance to see it.

We had one last morning before leaving and found this museum almost by accident. It was a quick walk downtown, inexpensive and well done. The layout is very well thought out, the exhibits are interesting and it was a very enjoyable visit.

it is the largest collection of work by Andy Warhol (the largest single-artist museum in the country) the city's most famous artist and American pop-art pioneer. it is near PNC Park. Opened in 1994, the museum is housed in a restored warehouse and displays many of Warhol's drawings, paintings, prints, and multimedia installations, as well as presents several of his films and video clips through 4 floors.

Housed in a refurbished warehouse. The Warhol is one of the four Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh.
Snap a Pic on the Red Couch: iconic pose - recreated by Jay-z and Big Bird.

Fee: $20/adult. We used our BOA card (museums are fee on a Bank of America card, the first weekend every month), but do reserve a timed ticket online in advance of your visit.
Parking: it's near to the museum building. we reached 10 AM and it was $8 but when we were leaving by 12, they changed the sign to $15 (i took a picture).

First day into the adventure of Pittsburgh so we decided to make a walk of it, walked across the bridge after checking into our HORRIFIC RENAISSANCE HOTEL and enjoyed the walk yet the museum was lacking fun, excitement, etc, it was in a old 4 story bldng that needed more repairs and not just a concrete floor hey here are picts he did and that was it, the over priced deli, well forget that and the price of entrance was stupid for what we seen and learned, but one learns the hard way.

Not really suited for young children. There are some graphic art pieces that may offend some,, but with that said it is art. The is a great way to see Warhol’s work from the beginning to end. These are his actual works! You can even do a screen test that downloads to your phone. Interesting stop if you enjoyed his work

Currently Fridays after 5 are 1/2 price. The 7 floor museum is beautiful and there are lots of things to see. There are tactile pieces too for those with low vision. A must see for art enthusiasts.

Was curious about Warhol, and learned about him and his life and accomplishments here. Family life was lackluster, and couldn't help but realize his challenges. When we got to the part where he was involved with commercial art and advertising, I loved seeing his talent in the awning of upscale women's fashion. So talented. Moving forward, he was always pushing the envelope of avant-garde art. Learned the person he painted most was Elizabeth Taylor. Not sure about the oxidation of urine on gold paint.....just sayin.

I'm not that familiar with Warhol's work, but I was passing by the museum on a Friday evening and it happened to still be open (and admission was half-price). The collection was intriguing, but it just wasn't my cup of tea. If you're a fan, you'll certainly enjoy it, but if you're just curious, perhaps come in on a Friday night.

If you are a Warhol fan then you need to visit this museum. There is lots of history of Warhol and many of his paintings. Very interesting and informative.

This museum highlights Andy Warhol's life as well as his art. I had forgotten how many people he knew and that he influenced and who influenced him. I recommend this museum to see inside how he created his art.

This gem is devoted to the life and art of the very talented Andy Warhol who produced a vast body of work. In addition to the museum and gift shop it contains a small, delightful cafe which serves wonderful coffee drinks and tasty snacks.

If you are a fan of Warhol and 60’s pop art you have to go. If not skip. It’s a great museum for his work.

A wonderful collection of Warhol's works and the layout really helps explain his development as an artist over the years.

Andy is an icon, this is a great space show casing his life and much of his art. The museum has a flow that invites you to stroll anywhere and however you like to do it. I would recommend this to anyone visiting the city as Warhol is an historic figure from the Burgh when times were hard for people that were different.

This gem of a museum did a great job telling the story of Andy Warhol’s life. All of the art was displayed where it was easy to appreciate. 7 stories tall and easy to get around in. Worth the admission fee. No large bags allowed. Small cloak room to hold them.

Andy is a true American hero of mine - he paved the way with a lot of other eccentric, creative artists of the 60's and 70's to show it was not only OK to be unique and different, but celebrated. I've wanted to go to this museum for years and made a special point of coming to Pittsburgh for this purpose. The Museum lived up to my high expectations and honors Andy's legacy. Well done to everyone behind the museum as well as the Carneghi Institute which was instrumental in making it happen. Even if you're not as much of a fan as I am - you'll get a kick out of a visit here. Super safe covid protocols too with limited/timed attendance- just make sure to buy your ticket in advance - they were readily available the day before I visited. Thanks Andy 😃

Enjoyed viewing the art of this talented man on display. Interesting to see the progression from his youth to his many famous friends. A joy to see.

If you happen to be in the Pittsburgh area a must is the Andy Warhol Museum. Parking is $8 and entrance is $20. It’s well worth your buck and time. Starting from the 7th floor down. The display is people friendly informative and it brings the artist to life. I wish I had more time to explore. This man lived his art he managed to take everyday living create art living art and after all is that not what art should be. My only regret is that my three hours did it no justice.

This 7-floor Carnegie Museum is one of the largest in the world dedicated to a single artist. Our family knew about Warhol as a celebrity and pop-art artist. This comprehensive retrospective traces from Warhol's days as an art student and savvy, in-demand illustrator for fashion designers to his death and beyond.

Fascinating exhibition. Go view the movie on his life first, then start on the top floor. All aspects of his life are covered. Don’t miss!

I didn't know much about Andy Warhol or his art before I came here, beyond occasionally seeing his artwork at different museums, so it was wonderful to go to a museum dedicated specifically to his artwork and life. I hadn't realized that he had enough work to fill 7 floors, but he was very prolific, and all of his work are fascinating.
The museum is stock-full of his art and is well-curated, with detailed information on each piece and how it fit within his life and the broader world. Definitely try to come back, as there's enough here for a couple of visits.

Visited here with my friends and family while in the area to attend a December graduation. This museum is nice and has multiple floors. We started at the top and went down which seemed to make the most sense. The rooms are not overly packed with stuff so there is plenty of room to move without feeling to crowded. The museum is basically a history of the late artist/director/film producer. I am a big fan of his art and visiting this museum was the icing on the cake. They also have a nice gift shop and cafe which we were sure to vist. We bought some magnets and other stuff and tasted the hot chocolate from the cafe, which was delicious by the way. If you like Mr. Warhola's works or interested in art or art history, you would like this museum. Sidenote: the lady at the admissions counter was not too friendly. Maybe they should hire someone who actually likes their job.

We only had 2-3 hours at this museum. We had our teen daughter with us. We started at the top and worked our way down. I liked how the exhibit was organized into Warhol's early years, and progressed to his later years and how his mediums or emphasis changed (painting, mass printings, film, etc). You could really explore a lot or you could just walk through it and pick out what you liked. A nice museum and I learned about Warhol's impact on modern, mass art.

I'm not a huge fan of Andy Warhol, but as an artist and retired art teacher, I do think the museum is worth the visit. I saw a lot of his work that I was surprisingly intrigued by as well as his early history as the child of immigrant parents in Pittsburgh. I especially loved the inclusion of his friendship with Basquiat, a favorite artist of mine.

I was a bit put off by a few, though by no means all of the staff, some of whom were somewhat snooty in a laughable manner. I've been visiting art museums all over the world for years and have never had the experience of a rather uncouth guard walking in front of me while I was viewing artwork! That is simply never done and showed an utter lack of respect for the art viewing experience. Another guard snapped my head off after I asked a simple, respectful question.

The holy grail of Andy Warhol's art. Fantastic survey of his works and great temporary shows. Worth travelling to Pittsburgh for just visiting the museum (though there are other great places like the Carnegie and Mattress Factory).

My wife and I liked this museum a lot but it seems that there were several areas on most floors that were closed off but yet crates of artwork and other memorabilia. Share more of what you have to offer and this becomes a five star review.

Glad we went even though at $20 a head it was a bit steep ! Some really interesting things to see, learnt a bit about the man & the times and enjoyed the experience. The short movie covered nearly everything you need or want to know ! The only down side was the lousy featured "Artist" on the lower floor, sorry, phallic envy or not, I thought it was crap !! I thought it took away from the event of Andy's work & life.

Eye opening, moving, educational and much much better in person than on Social Media. Worth a visit for anyone. Not just a bit of history. He started a fashion that is now part of the norm.

Visited the Warhol Museum on Father's Day. It was nice and quiet, we had room to move around without bug crowds. Wide variety of Warhol's art, photos of his childhood, letters, articles, collection items etc. displayed. Also a little bit of Pittsburgh history.

I'm not into Warhol's art in particular, but it was a cool museum to visit and at the very least offers cool back drops for photos. Was a little disappointed they didn't have maps or any kind of informational leaflets for visitors. Also quite an expensive museum to visit.

Installations on several floors, if you really want to take it all in, I'd reserve at least two to three hours. Cool museum shop, although also quite pricey.

The Andy Warhol Museum is definitely a big MUST for art lovers.
The museum is laid out conveniently on seven floors, following Warhol's life from top to bottom.
Take the elevator to the top and work your way down, following his creations and life story from 1928 to 1987 chronologically.
The works of art (both the iconic works and the less known ones) are varied and beautiful.
The portraits are very special.
The fascinating relationship and resulting creativity between Warhol and Basquiat are definitely one of the highlights.
The special exhibit of the helium filled "pillows" was fun for kids and adults alike.
Due to Covid - Entry is by pre-booked timed tickets only!! Be sure to purchase tickets online in advance!!
Excellent Museum!! A Definite MUST!!

I made my family come to the Warhol museum and EVERYONE enjoyed themselves. There were interactive exhibits. Seeing the sheer volume of Warhol's works in one place was amazing. Even the gift shop... I could have dropped serious coin in there if I had less restraint!!!

One recommendation... learn from my mistakes... look online as they often offer workshops. Because we went first thing in the morning, I missed the art workshop... which killed me as I really wanted to do the workshop. Completely my own fault. In my zeal to get there early, I did not look online regarding the workshops offered & I ewas super disappointed in myself.

Parking available across the street for $8. Admission for 2 adults & 1 kid was $50.

This is a museum my Husband has always wanted to visit and I am so glad we took the time to do so , what interesting exhibits.
If you don’t know much about Andy , I would suggest you read up about him , even before going.
1) That way you aren’t completely lost in the world in which he lived.
2) So you aren’t completely in shock about some of the things you might encounter and see!
The first impression when you walk in , is a nice and clean museum with absolutely friendly and helpful staff. They will explain where everything is and suggest you start at floor 7 and work your way down ( I suggest the same ) that way you can go from the very beginning of his life clear until the end.
It only took us a couple of hours to get through the complete museum itself and then of course we had to walk through the gift shop ( a little pricey ) but fun.
I’m not so sure I would take younger children through this , just due to the pictures and some things they could see , unless you are parents like us and are very open minded with your kiddos!
All and all , good fun place to visit !

If you have any interest in modern art or art history at all, this museum is your refuge. I enjoyed seeing a lot of Warhol’s original work and learning about his youth growing up in Pittsburgh. There was an interactive art display and the security yelled at me for being too aggressive. I felt disgraced (joke).

I didn't know much about Andy Warhol (Campbell soup cans was about all I knew) but I learned much about the life of the artist by visiting the museum. He was more than soup cans and portraits. The museum is laid out in chronological order which is the best way to stroll through the museum. Thousands of prints on display which include some for visually impaired. Very interesting and worth another visit.

The staff was incredibly condescending & rude. I would definitely not recommend visiting as it’s not worth the $25 entrance fee.

For me, the most interesting part was the early aspects of his life and his work in NY in the advertising world. I didn't know any of this, and the examples of his work, the videos of his techniques, and the commentary by clients on his persona provided a very interesting view of his life and how he became one of the most celebrated Pop Artists int the world.

Where the museum let me down was in how little attention was given to his larger cultural impact. I was a young teenager when he died, but even so, myself and I dare say most everyone in America knew of Warhol, his impact, his influence, and probably a few quotes attributed to him. Sadly, none of that was here. Most of the lower floors dealt with his film work, which in my opinion, was far less impactful on the world than his art.

I think the museum needed to devote more space to how huge and impact he had on the world, his interest in technology and how it could be applied to art, and also his personal life. He was a very devout Catholic throughout his life, though this journey had was not always easy for him, especially considering his sexual orientation.

For those of us who knew him when he was alive, you will probably not miss these oversights. For someone born after Warhol's passing, i don't think you will fully appreciate the impact he had on the world.

Paid parking nearby. Cafe on site with small bites. There is a quick movie that plays on the 1st floor. I'd recommend doing that first then going to the top and working your way down.

I spent a couple of hours here and probably could've spent a little bit more! I am not a huge Warhol fan but I wanted to learn more about him and see some of his iconic pieces! This museum is very well done and is organized over 7 stories. The top floor starts off with him as a child and as you travel down, he gets older. I really love the tactile art pieces for the visually impaired that you will find on most floors. If you have a couple of hours in Pitt, then come here! I ubered but it is also one of the stops on the hop on/off bus which makes it convenient for those with a pass!

Some tips/logistics-
-Backpacks, large bags, and water bottles must be put in the lockers.
-The museum is maybe 100 feet away from the Warhol Bridge. When you leave the museum you should walk over to the bridge to take some pictures!
-Save some time for the gift shop. It is filled with lots of great items!

My husband is a Warhol fan, so he visits every time we're in Pittsburgh. It's large and comprehensive.

We didn't know what to expect and generally aren't fans of contemporary art but we found this museum a great education on the life and work of Warhol. There wasn't an overwhelming amount of material so we could take it all in.

I admire the Andy Warhol artistic life and the museum gave me more from his personal life that I was not informed. It’s a nice complement. I would have loved a more knowledgeable guide during a gallery talk about a new exhibition.

This impressive museum is supposed to be the largest one in USA devoted to the legacy of a single artist . The collection is impressive. Andy Warchol was born in Pittsburgh and the bridge nearest to the museum is also his namesake.

Stunning! $20 to enter and worth twice that, the Warhol museum in 7 floors of visual and interactive exhibits. Friendly staff to answer questions and help you through the remarkable experience of the terrific collection!

I'm not a big Art-Museum person, I usually go for things that are more interactive, but I really enjoyed this Museum. We started our visit by watching the movie on the first floor - and I highly recommend starting there. It was ~20 minutes and super informative, giving really good context as you then move throughout the museum. Even for someone not very familiar with his art (other than the most famous pieces), I thought the whole exhibit was interesting. And in the basement they had a fun activity center set up for kids and adults!

The museum provided great insight in to who this man was and his influence on the art world. I did not appreciate his contributions and this place provides a great place to fully learn about him. It is worth a visit regardless of what yo think of his work.

Warhol is not for everyone but the Museum is just great and we are not big museum lovers. We waited for a museum talk when we entered and were not disappointed because a nephew of the artist talked a lot about his uncle's life and their life together as a family. We spent a lot of time here and enjoyed it immensely. Unfortunately, the gift shop has very pricey items.

I enjoyed this museum a lot. I liked that the museum had a lot of information about all the artwork. It is set up really nice and it’s easy to see everything. My favorite part was the gift shop! I would definitely say this is a must see!

Fascinating six floor museum that explores his history and works of art. Learned much that I was not aware of before. Easy and logical lay out. Senior and student rates.

Well arranged and interesting display with good signage and lots of interactive c exhibits. Takes chronological approach with many famous works and gets into the development of his work. Particularly interesting early technical work

This is a wonderful museum that not only has many Warhol works but also tells his life story in a compelling manner. I learned a lot about the artist. Price is very reasonable. Start at the top floor and work your way down. The museum was not too crowded the day we visited - a Friday morning - so I was able to spend plenty of time enjoying the great art.

Warhol was such an interesting person! Personally, I don't enjoy his art, but I still enjoyed the museum. I liked that the floors were chronological. The silver balloon room is the best! The "Factory" in the basement is something you won't want to miss. A great place to spend a few hours.

I didn't know a lot about Warhol but this was within easy walking distance of downtown and seemed like it was worth a shot. It was a fascinating museum and I highly recommend it. There are all kinds of interesting pieces from Warhol's life, and I'd recommend this to just about anybody!

I attended the museum as part of a business event. It was a great museum overall. I had an opportunity to do a screen printing and take a look inside an artist’s mind via their paintings.

The second floor art was a little difficult to follow.

My only “grudge” was the amount of inexperienced servers serving alcohol. During my stay I heard 3 trays full of glasses fall on the floor. Unfortunately, I was also part of the crossfire and received 6 glasses of wine on my backpack, clothes, and shoes. There wasn’t a bathroom on the first floor so I had to go to the second floor where I was directed by security.

When I get there the second floor security guard didn’t want me to bring up a glass of club soda I had. I was fine with it, but I was obviously covered in wine. You can take the glass, but let me go to the bathroom. After coming out I decided to stay on the second floor while I dried off since there were less people. The security guard once again came over to tell me I couldn’t be on the second floor with my backpack. What was I going to do? Steal a painting? This lack of consideration left a sour taste in my mouth. It may be a better experience when there isn’t such a large event.

Word of advice - don’t bring a bag. It’s not very obvious and they don’t mention it ahead of time. I never had an issue in NYC or Boston which has many more museums. If you’re in a touristy city it really doesn’t make sense to restrict bags.

An exhaustive review of Andy Warhol's life and work, an artist of enormous influence and originality. You can spend lots of time if you wish, as dozens and dozens of his films and videos are available for watching. Lots of hands-on exhibits and you can try to re-create his artistic techniques with your own hands. Also, don't miss making a "screen test," or silent video of yourself, which is free, but take a moment first to think through what you are planning to do while you sit there for 3 minutes. My advice - move around in the seat in different poses. Choose the brightest light setting as the videos come out dark.
