The four Carnegie Museums are home to so many priceless treasures: important collections of contemporary art and the works of French impressionists; fantastic artifacts of past civilizations and long-extinct creatures; interactive exhibits that bring science alive to kids and adults alike; and the wonderful and sometimes wacky art and archives of one of Pittsburgh’s most famous native sons, Andy Warhol.
