This museum is surrounded by roads of dubious quality and construction was going on in the area…read more The building itself seemed rather tired as well, so perhaps a needed refresh is coming. However, you can't complain too much when it's free. The current facility offers a couple of floors with small but interesting galleries. Some of the exhibitions are in collaboration with VMFA in Richmond. The collections I saw offered a mix of folksy history and contemporary perspectives. There is also a nice view of the valley as this building is on a hill. I received a rather disinterested welcome, and the collections weren't substantial enough to spend even an hour in total for me. I wouldn't come any great distance to see the place, but it seemed to offer some nice educational opportunities for the community and perhaps if renovated and expanded it will become more of a destination for non-locals. I would certainly be happy to see that happen.

The volunteer at the desk, a former psychiatric nurse, and I bonded over a shared history of Pittsburgh and nursing. All of the four exhibits, three temporary and one permanent, were interesting. I especially enjoyed the Quilt National '19 exhibit. I congratulate each of the quilters on bringing a fresh and novel approach to an old art form.

How wonderful to discover this local tea house in the community!…read more I first visited here because of an event that was being hosted. Sampled one of their teas, Apricot Brandy, and it was amazing! My second visit was for a Japanese culture class. Another wonderful experience shared with many along with delicious tea. First floor is cozy with plenty of nooks to sit and be comfortable. I see patrons working, reading or crafting enjoying a drink or a pastry the establishment offers. You can also purchase loose leaf tea they serve as well as their branded merchandise along with local designers. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful and I am looking forward to many more visits to the Philosopher's House.
