A postponed exhibit at the Frick Pittsburgh called “Treasured Ornament: 10 Centuries of Islamic Art,” will now be open Saturday and run through Oct. 20.

It was postponed last fall after Hamas’ attack on Israel on Oct. 7.

The exhibition was curated by Christopher Hatten and based on research published in the accompanying catalogue written by Walter B. Denny, distinguished professor of the History of Art and Architecture at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, and Sue D’Auria, former associate curator at the Huntington Museum of Art. Glenna Barlow, curator of Education at the Columbia Museum of Art in South Carolina, shared the interpretive plan, didactics, and labels from the Columbia Museum of Art’s 2023 presentation of the exhibition.

The museum is located at 7227 Reynolds St.
