June 5-June 14 – #tbd and YASC exhibit along the Allegheny River: AIA Pittsburgh partnered with Riverlife and the Dollar Bank Three Rivers Arts Festival to expand the conversation of how to best fill the often unseen space of the riverwalk between the Clemente Bridge and Point State Park. A 900 foot mural, designed by artist Kim Beck, will be painted along the wall throughout the Arts Fest. Design proposals from past Young Architects Studio Competitions are also on display in this space, helping to get the public thinking about how to use these underutilized spaces throughout our region. Go see this new public art and join the conversation!
