Portrait Society

Portrait Society is The Warhol Museum’s first affinity group and closest circle of supporters, offering unique art experiences both locally and abroad.

The annual slate of exclusive member programs celebrates and explores Andy Warhol’s indelible impact on contemporary visual art and culture. Members enjoy insider access to the museum, including exclusive opportunities to meet artists, interact with curators, and tour private collections—all while helping to sustain the museum through their contributions to our curatorial program. Membership at any level to Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh is a prerequisite to Portrait Society membership, and comes with its own set of benefits.

The Andy Warhol Museum’s lobby space is illuminated with bright green party lights as a crowd of patrons mingle. The image was taken using a long exposure making all of the moving people in the scene appear blurry as the architecture of the room appears clear.
