The changes that are being made to the festival are being described as âtemporary adjustments.â
The virtual offerings, which will be available at TrustArts.org/TRAF and via select Pittsburgh Cultural Trust social media channels, will incorporate innovations from the first-ever virtual Festival in 2020, plus some new enhancements to be announced closer to the dates of the festival. All aspects of the festival, including any tentative in-person attractions, will also be available online.
The festivalâs in-person, limited-capacity events â all of which are subject to change â will be presented at indoor and outdoor locations in Pittsburghâs Cultural District. No events will take place in Point State Park and Gateway Center. In-person, limited-capacity events will remain free to attend, but will require advance registration and timed entry.
Newly opened art exhibitions include a Women’s History Month retrospective and a showcase of watercolor works.
For music, there’s everything from “trucker rock” to swing to choral works.
Both kids and adults can put pen to paper for Ligonier Valley Writers programs, while Pittsburgh Public Theater is seeking reminiscences of the past year and hopes for the future.
The details are here, in this week’s Big List.
