I received this in an email from the folks at VisitPittsburgh.  It is pretty cool that Pittsburgh ranked 3rd in AmericanStyle Magazines top Arts Cities.

Help Pittsburgh Be Recognized as TOPS IN THE ARTS!

Think Pittsburgh is a contender in the world of art? VisitPittsburgh thinks so and AmericanStyle magazine wants to hear from you.

The monthly arts magazine has opened its official balloting process to identify the Top 25 Arts Cities in the United States . In 2006, Pittsburgh ranked third in the magazine’s 9th annual Top 25 Arts Destinations Readers’ Poll. (Pittsburgh has appeared four times since the poll’s inception.)

If you agree that Pittsburgh is indeed among the Top 25 Arts Destinations (this year listed by market size-Pittsburgh is in the mid-tier group), we encourage you to go to www.AmericanStyle.com and cast your vote by clicking to the right side of the home page on the red, white and blue TOP 25 ARTS DESTINATIONS.

You can choose additional markets too but, remember, a vote for them works against your vote for Pittsburgh !

Be prepared to state why you think Pittsburgh is a top arts destination.

Hurry! All Ballots received now will be entered to win a $500 airline travel certificate from AmericanStyle.

Forward this to your friends and family and help recognize Pittsburgh as Tops in the Arts!
