The Warhol partners extensively with a range of nonprofit and community-based organizations to extend enriching art education experiences beyond the museum’s walls.

The Warhol works with the Homeless Children’s Education Fund to offer hands-on programs for children, youth, and families experiencing homelessness. Artist educators introduce silkscreen printing and other techniques for creative expression in shelters and transitional housing facilities throughout Allegheny County.

Through a partnership with Highmark Caring Place, The Warhol offers therapeutic portraiture workshops for families affected by loss. Caring Place is a center for grieving children, youth, and their families. Warhol lost his own father, Andrej, at the age of thirteen, and his story and artistic process offer inspiring and healing creative experiences for young people grappling with loss.

The Warhol partners with Gay Straight Alliances (GSAs) and local nonprofit organizations that provide support and foster community among LGBTQ+ youth throughout Pittsburgh.

Since 1998, the Artists in Schools partnership program has reached thousands of students in area schools, including Obama Academy for International Studies (formerly Schenley High School and Warhol’s alma mater), Pittsburgh’s High School for the Creative and Performing Arts (CAPA), Pittsburgh Westinghouse, Wesley Spectrum, Morrow Elementary, and Pittsburgh Perry. These outreach projects focus on teaching young people all aspects of the creative process through the lens of Warhol’s art and life and the vision of practicing artists. Artists in Schools in generously supported by The Grable Foundation.

Youth Open Studio is a weekly drop-in printmaking workshop for young people of all experience levels. Learn photographic silkscreen printing for the first time, or improve your skills and make your own projects to keep. This free program is presented in collaboration with Artists Image Resource (AIR), an artist-run printmaking facility on Pittsburgh’s historic North Side. Youth Open Studio at AIR is open each Wednesday during the school year from 4–8 p.m., for teens ages 13–18.

We embrace LGBTQ+ culture and Warhol’s role as a gay icon.
