August Benefit Benefiting The Mattress Factory Since 1977, the Mattress Factory has supported over 300 artists through their world-renowned residency program. Each year artists come to Pittsburgh, live at the museum, and create new work. During their time there, the museum supports them completely while they experiment, take risks, and explore the creative process. Each exhibition is paired with a variety of engaging and inventive educational programs including hands-on art projects, workshops, lectures, and tours. The Mattress Factory encourages all viewers, regardless of their background, to discover connections between art, creativity and their everyday lives. |
