Andrew Carnegie Free Library, Beaux-Arts library and music hall in Carnegie, United States
The Andrew Carnegie Free Library integrates a public library, music hall, and Lincoln Gallery across multiple floors of a grand Beaux-Arts building.
The library opened in 1901 through a $200,000 grant from industrialist Andrew Carnegie after the town adopted his name following the merger of Chartiers and Mansfield.
The Music Hall hosts concerts and performances in a 400-seat venue recognized for its acoustics, while the Lincoln Gallery displays 100 photographs of Abraham Lincoln.
Located at 300 Beechwood Avenue, the facility maintains separate spaces for events, including the Studio for 150 people and the Lincoln Gallery for 75 attendees.
This institution represents one of only four Carnegie libraries that received direct endowments from Andrew Carnegie instead of operating under the standard Carnegie Formula.
