First Fridays: Unblurred with End Street Harassment

Join us on the first Friday of each month from 6-10pm for First Fridays: Unblurred, a monthly gallery art show exhibition at Assemble.

Each month, a different local artist will showcase their work in our 4824 Penn Ave Gallery Space. Assemble provides free drinks, snacks, and a variety of family-friendly activities.

Not a Compliment: End Street Harassment PGH 

This exhibit showcases work from the End Street Harassment PGH collective. Drawing upon information gathered in interviews and focus groups with high school and college students in Pittsburgh, the exhibit sheds light on people’s experiences of street harassment and how it impacts them. Black and white photos document locations and spaces where harassment has occurred. Paintings illustrate the emotional toll that street harassment has on individuals. Collages explore the possibility of a world without street harassment. The exhibit also features public art mapping out street harassment and the challenges of navigating public spaces in safety.

End Street Harassment PGH

Their mission is to raise awareness about street harassment in Pittsburgh. Through advocacy, community collaboration, and creativity, they believe change is possible.Their vision is to cultivate a Pittsburgh that is welcoming and inclusive for all, a community in which everyone feels safe in public spaces.
