About Pittsburgh Cultural Trust

The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust has overseen one of Pittsburgh’s most historic transformations:
turning a seedy red-light district into a magnet destination for arts lovers, residents, visitors,
and business owners.  Founded in 1984, the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust is a non-profit arts
organization whose mission is the cultural and economic revitalization of a 14-block arts and
entertainment/residential neighborhood called the Cultural District. The District is one of the
country’s largest land masses “curated” by a single nonprofit arts organization.  A major
catalytic force in the city, the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust is a unique model of how public-private
partnerships can reinvent a city with authenticity, innovation and creativity.  Using the arts as
an economic catalyst, the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust has holistically created a world-renowned
Cultural District that is revitalizing the city, improving the regional economy and enhancing
Pittsburgh’s quality of life.  Thanks to the support of foundations, corporations, government
agencies and thousands of private citizens, the Cultural Trust stands as a national model of
urban redevelopment through the arts.  For more information, visit TrustArts.org. Follow us
