Things To Do

Carnegie Museums of Art and Natural History

Wedding guests get FREE admission to the museum on Saturday October 11 (day of our wedding). Since the ceremony is not until 5 p.m., we highly recommend spending the day wandering around Oakland - seeing the University of Pittsburgh and spending some time at the Carnegie Museums.
