Celebrated Pittsburgh artist Laura Jean McLaughlin has designed two fabulous mosaic murals that will become very public, outdoor art in Library Park. The Library & Music Hall, Carnegie, Pittsburgh and parks everywhere inspired Laura Jean’s art.

The murals will adorn two low walls – 53 and 64 feet long. Park goers will use these walls as benches to eat their lunch, read a book or commune with nature. The walls can be used for outdoor classrooms and they will provide a 117- linear feet wall-walking bonanza for generations of children enjoying Library Park!
