Just released today: Pittsburgh Art in Public Places; Downtown Walking Tour
The Office of Public Art has published an exciting guide to art in public places in downtown Pittsburgh. No matter where you are downtown, you are steps away from experiencing a work of art. By taking this tour of four downtown neighborhoods, residents and visitors will experience remarkable artwork by some of the nationally & internationally recognized artists. Since many of the artists were inspired by our region when they created their pieces, the tour is also a great way to learn about Pittsburgh’s place in history. Explore the dynamic collection of art in public places in four downtown neighborhoods. Each tour takes an hour to 90 minutes.
