The Carnegie Art Museum currently has its International exhibit open to the public, one of our favorite exhibits. Every five years, the museum hosts the artwork of contemporary artists across the world here, allowing us insight into the cutting edge of the artistic world. This year, the theme is "If the word we," structuring the exhibit around the respite and challenges of community during escalating political violence and division.
