2- Saturday, May 28: SouthShore Riverwalk & Chalk Fest at SouthSide Works, 2-6 p.m.

This might be the most beautiful of the family-friendly events in Pittsburgh this weekend. During the pandemic, the chalk art craze swept the city, with artists of all ages adding beauty to their sidewalks, porches, stoops and patios. The art form will reach new heights when this first-of-kind festival hits the South Side. Over Memorial Day weekend, 21 artists from 13 states will create eye-popping scenes. Look out for participatory pieces like Sandy Forseth’s chalk mandala and a 3-D tableau by Kumpa Tawornprom. Pittsburgh’s own “Chalking Dad,” Erik Greenawalt, will rep our city. The free festivities boast food trucks, breweries, pop-up performances and hands-on activities. Selfie alert: Artists will start their murals May 27 and onlookers are welcome.
3 - Sunday, May 29: OpenStreetsPGH Downtown and the South Side,  10 a.m.-2 p.m.

Tapping into the spirit of car-free fun as a “vehicle” for community building, this beloved BikePGH event invites you to get an entirely new perspective on urban existence. If you’ve ever wanted to explore the mysterious Armstrong Tunnel or cross the Tenth Street Bridge on foot, now’s your chance. Stretching from Downtown to the Southside, the two-mile route includes activity hubs, fitness classes, performances, food trucks and special promotions.
