Pre-Conference Events
Journey off the beaten path with us and discover hidden art that is tucked away in our downtown nooks, crannies, and alleys. Our expert guides will dive into the history of the city’s Cultural District that is filled with historic theaters and beautiful plazas, and learn about the famous artists, actors, and musicians from our beloved city. You’ll also see the best of Pittsburgh’s public art: captivating sculptures, light installations, and colorful murals. This is a great tour for photo-ops, and is a wonderful way for families with children to see and interact with the city.
Join conference co-chairs Leah Shuck and Lynda Abraham-Braff for a night of narrative and story telling at the Children's Museum of Pittsburgh. In collaboration with museum staff you will have an opportunity to explore the campus as well as work through some hands-on activities in the studio spaces.
