Pittsburgh alfresco issue 2: Say “Farewell” to Summer and the City
Fall is here, summer is fading, but let’s take one quick look back before the leaves have fallen and the chill has taken hold! Pittsburgh alfresco “(Say Farewell to) Summer and the City” is now available online.
Contributing photographers Vincent Sims, Ryan Wenner, and Beverly Kirby Mitchell, join creative director and editor Lucinda Wiebe for a quick review of the sights of summer in and around the City of Pittsburgh. Karen Gainey shares the story of how she became devoted to educating folks about fishing in the region, and Leila Khalil offers a poem that conjures up her childhood and the sense of community she found among diverse cultures of farmers bringing their fresh foods to The Strip District.
