Seeing Pittsburgh @ The Bost Building
Now through January 31, 2009 In celebration of Pittsburgh's 250th anniversary, Rivers of Steel worked with 44 Pittsburgher's from eleven neighborhoods to produce the Seeing Pittsburgh project. Armed with cameras and instructions to show us what defines their community, these residents photographed the good, the bad, the new, the old, the physical, the emotional...everything that defines their neighborhood.
Visit http://www.riversofsteel.com/ for hours and directions.
Bring a copy of this email when you visit the exhibit in September and receive 10% off the Seeing Pittsburgh book.
