La Prima Espresso & Vintage Pittsburgh retro fair at Heinz History Center

Please join us for the Heinz History Center’s 12th Annual Vintage Pittsburgh retro fair where old is new again! Presented in partnership with the Neighborhood Flea, you’re invited to shop ‘til you drop for far-out finds and groovy goods on Saturday, April 4 from 10 AM-3 PM. Dozens of local makers and vendors will be selling one-of-a-kind clothing, accessories, home décor, vinyl records, and more! This is also the last day to check out Pittsburgh’s Hidden History exhibition where visitors wander through a whimsical world of wonders featuring rarely and never-before-seen objects that tell stories from Pittsburgh’s past like never before.

The Meetup will begin 2 blocks from the Heinz History Center at La Prima Espresso Downtown 1100 Penn Avenue (at the corner with Smallman Street, near Convention Center) as the group gathers from 10:30-11 AM to enjoy coffee/tea/breakfast together and discuss how much time they have to spend before they walk over to the Heinz History Center & Western Pennsylvania Sports Museum. Because the Heinz History Center will be crowded, it will be easier to meet at La Prima Espresso Downtown (1100 Penn Avenue) beforehand.

Once inside the Heinz History Center & Western Pennsylvania Sports Museum, the group may check out all of the exhibits at a leisurely pace since the museum is open until 5 PM.

It's also OK if people wish to enjoy La Prima Espresso Downtown, meet/socialize with others in the group but decide to do something else during the afternoon together in the Strip District or Downtown, such as downtown art galleries, shows, etc.

The Heinz History Center & Western Pennsylvania Sports Museum contains 7 floors of exhibits and is open daily from 10 AM - 5 PM. Admission is $20 Adult, $18 Senior, $11 Student. Tickets are available at the door.

Depending on the RSVPs, weather, and interests of the group, some people may go out for an optional late lunch or optional dinner in the nearby Strip District or downtown. Stay tuned for updates.
