Squirrel Hill NIGHT MARKET
Monthly June - September
In August 2015 we launched the largest night market in the city of Pittsburgh. In association with Squirrel Hill Urban Coalition and Uncover Squirrel Hill, we furthered our goal of creating a third place in the heart of Squirrel Hill's business district by delivering great music, shopping, food, and art in a cosmopolitan, open-street setting. Crowd estimates were 10,000 attendees per market and projections for total economic impact were hundreds of thousands of dollars.
STREET STAGE
Launched Summer 2015
Together with our partners, the City of Pittsburgh and Shift Collaborative, we created a public performance space in the heart of Squirrel Hill. The intersection of Forbes and Murray has more foot traffic than any intersection in the city and we delivered live evening performances in an effort to enliven and energize our shared public spaces.
lunar new year parade
Launched February 2016
Together with over a dozen local partners, we hosted Pittsburgh's FIRST Chinese new year parade in the heart of its most socio-economically diverse neighborhood. With thirty-one Asian owned businesses, Squirrel Hill is the center of an important and growing community. A 21st Century Chinatown. Worlds collided in beautiful new ways, as a parade of 300 people and 20+ Asian organizations, including many dragons, drums, and dumplings, celebrated on a six block stretch of historic Murray Avenue.
