Pittsburgh Outdoor Murals and Art

About PghMurals.com

Here’s the one-minute version: Since January 2012 we’ve been riding our bicycles to murals and public artwork all over the Pittsburgh region. We took pictures, did some research, and we were amazed at the range and quality of public art in Pittsburgh so we built this website hoping to be of use to others who might be interested.

Here’s a little bit more: We rode our bikes to every one of these murals. We have not dealt with any interior murals. We did encounter some sculptures and mosaics on our bikes, and we’ve invoked curator’s discretion as to whether or not to include them. We really haven’t engaged commercial murals yet.

Pittsburgh is a city of neighborhoods, so we’ve organized the murals by neighborhood.

Some murals we went looking for aren’t there anymore, so we’ve marked them as “ghost murals”.

Finally, when we can we’d like to learn and share the story and the context behind the artwork.

If you know of another mural,
If you want to correct some information,
If you want to ask a question,
If you have a better picture that you’ve loaded onto Picasa or Flickr and you want to send us a URL,
If you’re an artist who wants to tell us the story of a mural,
