The Frist Art Museum presents changing exhibitions in Nashville's former main post office, a building with a strong Art Deco character.
Its program brings different artists, periods, and cultures into focus rather than relying on one permanent collection display. The combination of architecture, exhibitions, and creative activities makes each visit distinct.
Review the current exhibition schedule before choosing a date, since installations can change between shows. Allow time for the building's details and confirm access to family activities, programs, and any separately ticketed events.
Visitor details reviewed October 17, 2026. Check official visitor information for current access, admission, and operating arrangements. View on OpenStreetMap.
