ABOUT PITTSBURGH
Pittsburgh is centrally located and has an international airport served by major U.S. and international airlines. Located at the junction of three rivers, Pittsburgh has long since shed its erstwhile image as a steel town and has been reborn as a vibrant and delightful city. Its gilded age, industrial past is well represented by four Carnegie museums (including the Museum of Natural History and the Museum of Art), and the Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens; for those with more modern tastes, there is the Andy Warhol Museum on the north side of town. Home to a 120-year old symphony orchestra and many professional sports teams (including the iconic Pittsburgh Pirates and the Pittsburgh Steelers), the city offers tours and attractions too numerous to mention, including parks and green spaces, trolleys, and funiculars.
The conference venue is within walking distance or a short Uber/cab ride from a variety of hotels and the downtown area.
