New $31m art-filled park planned for downtown Pittsburgh
The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust (PCT) will open a four-acre art-filled park called Arts Landing in 2026, part of a $600 million government plan to revitalize the city's cultural district. The $31 million project will feature ten regional artists, including Pittsburgh-based vanessa german, whose work 'Lifted' honors local elders, and Thaddeus Mosley, whose exhibition 'Touching the Earth' will travel from New York's City Hall Park via a partnership with the Public Art Fund. Other commissions include Darian Johnson's wildlife sculptures with VaultArt Studio and John Peña's interactive kinetic work with the Children's Museum of Pittsburgh.
