Three Rivers Arts Festival

June 1-10 2012

Posted by on Thu, Jun 7, 2012 at 10:04 AM

Three Rivers Arts Festival is a 10-day celebration of the arts held annually in Downtown Pittsburgh. The Three Rivers Arts Festival quickly grew from the “little outdoor art show” to what is today the region’s largest multidisciplinary showcase of visual art and performing arts. Despite a rapid growth, the Festival’s mission to connect the community to arts and culture has remained consistent throughout the event’s 50-year history.

City Paper was on site for opening weekend and we had a great time listening to the live bands, viewing all the local art and of course eating the amazing festival food! P.S. try the fried Oreo's! Be sure to stop by our booth this weekend (June 8-10) for fun promotions and give-a-ways!
