Art All Night Pittsburgh 2025

Have you ever stayed up all night? Probably in college, but have you ever done it to experience art? Well there is an event in Pittsburgh for just that! Originally started in 1998 in Lawrenceville, Art All Night Pittsburgh is hosting its 28th season this month! Poohbah Lisa Fucciarelli, volunteer team lead Liz Janco, and newest member of the planning committee Marisa Golden, talk about the upcoming 28th Art All Night. They talk about the history of the event that grows each year and is always in a new venue. This year, it is in a donated and soon to be redeveloped space on the North Shore. They also talk about all of the activities and art the audience can experience over the course of 22 hours. There will be interactive installations, live painting, performance art, music, stand-up comedy, poetry, and graffiti art. The event ends with a sales of the artwork created on-site by over 1,000 artists. There will also be children's art up for bid. Lisa explains what the Poohbah title means, and Liz and Marisa highlight the events musical activities, including a marching band! All three emphasize the importance of accessibility and empowerment in the arts. They hope everyone will come to see Pittsburgh's unique artistic spirit.
