Prices at the ticket link reflect the all-in ticket price (face value + fees) – minus any taxes / credit card processing fees. \n\n\n\n\n\nSeating Chart (click to view)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nCarnegie of Homestead Seat Map (click to expand)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuilt in 1898\, the Carnegie Library of Homestead was constructed by William Miller and Sons of Pittsburgh at a cost of $250\,000. The second of three libraries built here in the Mon Valley\, the Carnegie Library of Homestead was built for use by the common man but adorned with grandeur and opulence fit for a royal family. The Carnegie Library of Homestead is the oldest Carnegie library in continuous operation in its original structure in the US\, and was chosen by CNN in 2014 as one of the 27 most fascinating libraries in the world to visit. Unique to other libraries\, it also is home to a full-service athletic facility and grand concert hall. \nAlso known as the Carnegie of Homestead\, its modern mission is to provide programs and facilities that enhance learning\, wellness and quality of life within and outside the Steel Valley. Today\, we serve over 17\,000 residents of Munhall\, Homestead\, West Homestead\, Whitaker\, and families in nearby communities such as West Mifflin\, Lincoln Place\, Hays\, Greenfield\, Squirrel Hill\, Duquesne and more. The Carnegie of Homestead uplifts and improves the lives of youth\, families and the elderly\, by serving as a community activities center for families and groups throughout the Mon Valley. \nThe Library holds 3\,000\,000 county-wide items in collection including books\, audiobooks\, DVDs\, CDs\, newspapers\, magazines and eResources. There are nearly 7\,000 cardholders (35% of our residents) and on average 733 people visit daily. 30 computers provide over 30\,000 online access sessions annually by the general public\, including disadvantaged individuals who cannot afford home computers and online services. The library holds over 1\,000 learning programs annually in which almost 20\,000 participate of all ages. On any given day\, a variety of activities are happening: toddler and children story time\, arts and crafts; science and art classes for homeschooled children; literacy outreach & book distribution to 30+ local preschools and daycare centers; homework assistance for teens equipped with computers and media; laptops and iPads with college-level computer programming\, and STEAM (Science\, Technology\, Arts\, Math) workshops including robotics in the Makerspace classroom; book clubs for teens through seniors\, knitting classes\, crafting workshops for adults\, and cultural programs such as Japanese or Russian language and psyanky egg decorating! \nThe Athletic Club hosts 1\,100 members who pay affordable fees to attend in Yoga\, Water Aerobics\, Spinning\, Tai Chi\, and Zumba classes in the fitness studios\, enjoy our heated indoor swimming pool\, gymnasium with a walking track\, and train for baseball/softball using our indoor batting cages. 200 youth participate in year-round sports lessons and 230 adults enjoy year-round basketball and volleyball leagues. 150 children and adults learned to swim\, participated in aquatics exercise and scuba instruction classes. 550 seniors are active members of our Silver Sneakers/Silver and Fit exercise classes geared to older adults. \nThe Music Hall seats 1\,045 guests in an intimate atmosphere that has changed very little from the original venue. In 2019\, 50\,000 patrons traveled from Western Pennsylvania and across the country to see nationally known entertainers such as American Idol\, Dave Chappelle\, Pete Davidson\, Boz Scaggs\, Sturgill Simpson\, Jeff Goldblum\, and more. The Music Hall uniquely serves also as a “community house” to local nonprofits offering meeting space for civic engagement\, programs and services such as graduation commencement exercises\, naturalization ceremonies\, school band concerts\, church plays and local dance recitals. Year-round\, the music hall serves as an economic driver for nearby restaurants\, retail establishments and hotels – for every 50 shows held\, the Carnegie brings over $1\,000\,000 in revenue to the Waterfront and Eighth Avenue business districts. Space rentals and ticket sales provide revenue to support the facility and programs that serve our community. “The Carnegie of Homestead is a textbook example of social enterprise and sustainability reinvention\,” experts say\, “by using revenue from the music hall and its fitness club memberships to stay viable.” The library’s core mission has been preserved\, and then some: you can check out a book or use a computer\, take a Spinning class\, learn to swim or enjoy a concert. \nAndrew Carnegie’s vision is alive today as the Carnegie of Homestead continues its dedication to the community by providing vital resources to families throughout the Mon Valley.

The second of three libraries built here in the Mon Valley\, the Carnegie Library of Homestead was built for use by the common man but adorned with grandeur and opulence fit for a royal family. The Carnegie Library of Homestead is the oldest Carnegie library in continuous operation in its original structure in the US\, and was chosen by CNN in 2014 as one of the 27 most fascinating libraries in the world to visit. Unique to other libraries\, it also is home to a full-service athletic facility and grand concert hall. \nAlso known as the Carnegie of Homestead\, its modern mission is to provide programs and facilities that enhance learning\, wellness and quality of life within and outside the Steel Valley. Today\, we serve over 17\,000 residents of Munhall\, Homestead\, West Homestead\, Whitaker\, and families in nearby communities such as West Mifflin\, Lincoln Place\, Hays\, Greenfield\, Squirrel Hill\, Duquesne and more. The Carnegie of Homestead uplifts and improves the lives of youth\, families and the elderly\, by serving as a community activities center for families and groups throughout the Mon Valley. \nThe Library holds 3\,000\,000 county-wide items in collection including books\, audiobooks\, DVDs\, CDs\, newspapers\, magazines and eResources. There are nearly 7\,000 cardholders (35% of our residents) and on average 733 people visit daily. 30 computers provide over 30\,000 online access sessions annually by the general public\, including disadvantaged individuals who cannot afford home computers and online services. The library holds over 1\,000 learning programs annually in which almost 20\,000 participate of all ages. On any given day\, a variety of activities are happening: toddler and children story time\, arts and crafts; science and art classes for homeschooled children; literacy outreach & book distribution to 30+ local preschools and daycare centers; homework assistance for teens equipped with computers and media; laptops and iPads with college-level computer programming\, and STEAM (Science\, Technology\, Arts\, Math) workshops including robotics in the Makerspace classroom; book clubs for teens through seniors\, knitting classes\, crafting workshops for adults\, and cultural programs such as Japanese or Russian language and psyanky egg decorating! \nThe Athletic Club hosts 1\,100 members who pay affordable fees to attend in Yoga\, Water Aerobics\, Spinning\, Tai Chi\, and Zumba classes in the fitness studios\, enjoy our heated indoor swimming pool\, gymnasium with a walking track\, and train for baseball/softball using our indoor batting cages. 200 youth participate in year-round sports lessons and 230 adults enjoy year-round basketball and volleyball leagues. 150 children and adults learned to swim\, participated in aquatics exercise and scuba instruction classes. 550 seniors are active members of our Silver Sneakers/Silver and Fit exercise classes geared to older adults. \nThe Music Hall seats 1\,045 guests in an intimate atmosphere that has changed very little from the original venue. In 2019\, 50\,000 patrons traveled from Western Pennsylvania and across the country to see nationally known entertainers such as American Idol\, Dave Chappelle\, Pete Davidson\, Boz Scaggs\, Sturgill Simpson\, Jeff Goldblum\, and more. The Music Hall uniquely serves also as a “community house” to local nonprofits offering meeting space for civic engagement\, programs and services such as graduation commencement exercises\, naturalization ceremonies\, school band concerts\, church plays and local dance recitals. Year-round\, the music hall serves as an economic driver for nearby restaurants\, retail establishments and hotels – for every 50 shows held\, the Carnegie brings over $1\,000\,000 in revenue to the Waterfront and Eighth Avenue business districts. Space rentals and ticket sales provide revenue to support the facility and programs that serve our community. “The Carnegie of Homestead is a textbook example of social enterprise and sustainability reinvention\,” experts say\, “by using revenue from the music hall and its fitness club memberships to stay viable.” The library’s core mission has been preserved\, and then some: you can check out a book or use a computer\, take a Spinning class\, learn to swim or enjoy a concert. \nAndrew Carnegie’s vision is alive today as the Carnegie of Homestead continues its dedication to the community by providing vital resources to families throughout the Mon Valley.

SUMMARY:10 Things to Actually Do in Steel Valley This Summer!
DESCRIPTION:10 Things to Actually Do in Steel Valley This Summer!\n \nSummer is one of the best times to explore everything the Steel Valley has to offer. Whether you’re a longtime resident\, a newcomer to the area\, or someone looking for things to do near Pittsburgh\, Homestead\, Munhall\, and West Homestead are filled with unique experiences\, local events\, outdoor recreation\, arts\, entertainment\, and community celebrations. \nTo help you plan your summer\, we’ve put together ten great ways to experience the Steel Valley. \n1. Walk\, Run or Bike the GAP Trail\n \nThe Great Allegheny Passage (GAP Trail) is one of the region’s greatest outdoor assets. Stretching from Pittsburgh to Cumberland\, Maryland\, the trail passes directly through the Steel Valley and offers beautiful river views\, historic landmarks\, and easy access to local businesses\, restaurants\, and attractions. \nWhether you’re walking\, jogging\, biking\, or simply enjoying the scenery\, the GAP Trail is a perfect way to experience the community. \n2. Explore & Experience History\n \nFew communities can tell the story of American industry like the Steel Valley.  \nVisit Rivers of Steel destinations including the historic Pump House and Carrie Blast Furnaces. Take a guided tour\, attend a workshop\, explore industrial art experiences\, or learn how steelmaking helped shape not only our region but the nation itself. \nThese sites continue to attract visitors from around the world while preserving the area’s remarkable history. \n3. Celebrate 125 Years of Munhall & West Homestead Boroughs\n \nBoth Munhall and West Homestead are celebrating their 125th anniversaries in 2026. \nThroughout the summer\, residents and visitors can participate in special events\, celebrations\, historical programs\, and community gatherings honoring the people\, neighborhoods\, and businesses that helped build these communities. \nMunhall celebrates on June 13\, while West Homestead’s anniversary festivities take place August 13–15. \n4. Catch a Show on a Local Stage\n \nThe Steel Valley has become home to an impressive collection of entertainment venues and performance spaces. \nCatch local performers at The Glitterbox Theater and Forge Urban Winery\, or enjoy legendary bands\, musicians\, and entertainers at the historic Carnegie Library of Homestead Music Hall or nationally touring comedians and acts at the Pittsburgh Improv! \nNo matter your interests\, there is likely a show happening nearby. \n5. Discover Local Murals & Public Art\n \nThe Steel Valley has quietly become one of the most colorful outdoor galleries in the region. \nMurals\, public art installations\, painted walls\, and creative placemaking projects can be found throughout Homestead\, Munhall\, and West Homestead. Spend an afternoon exploring the neighborhoods and see how artists are helping tell the story of the community through public art. \n6. Spend a Night at Market Nights\n \nMunhall Market Nights have quickly become one of the area’s favorite summer traditions. \nFeaturing food trucks\, local vendors\, live entertainment\, community organizations\, and family activities\, these gatherings bring hundreds of people together throughout the summer. \nUpcoming dates include June 26\, July 24\, and August 28. \n7. Experience Arts & Education\n \nSummer is a great time to learn something new. \nTake a class\, attend a workshop\, visit a library program\, participate in a community event\, or experience educational programming offered by organizations such as the Carnegie Library of Homestead\, Best of the Batch Foundation\, Dragon’s Den\, Eberle Studios\, B is for Books\, and many others throughout the Steel Valley. \n8. Celebrate with Community\n \nCommunity events remain at the heart of the Steel Valley experience. \nFrom the Knights Barbershop Block Party and Homestead Community Day to neighborhood fundraisers\, concerts\, races\, festivals\, and community celebrations\, summer is when residents come together to celebrate what makes these communities special. \n9. Explore Our Parks & Green Spaces\n \nThe Steel Valley offers more green space than many people realize. \nNeighborhood parks\, playgrounds\, athletic fields\, walking paths\, and riverfront areas provide opportunities to relax\, exercise\, and enjoy the outdoors. Whether you’re spending time with family\, walking the dog\, or attending a community event\, local parks remain an important part of summer life. \n10. Your Summer Starts Here\n \nOf course\, these ten ideas are only the beginning. \nSteelValleyEvents.com was created to help residents and visitors discover everything happening throughout Homestead\, Munhall\, and West Homestead. From events and festivals to restaurants\, shops\, attractions\, business spotlights\, and interactive maps\, the site serves as a local guide to exploring the Steel Valley. \nWhether you’re looking for something to do this weekend\, planning a visit\, supporting local businesses\, or discovering a new favorite destination\, SteelValleyEvents.com is your starting point. \nGet out\, explore\, support local\, and enjoy summer in the Steel Valley!

The second of three libraries built here in the Mon Valley\, the Carnegie Library of Homestead was built for use by the common man but adorned with grandeur and opulence fit for a royal family. The Carnegie Library of Homestead is the oldest Carnegie library in continuous operation in its original structure in the US\, and was chosen by CNN in 2014 as one of the 27 most fascinating libraries in the world to visit. Unique to other libraries\, it also is home to a full-service athletic facility and grand concert hall. \nAlso known as the Carnegie of Homestead\, its modern mission is to provide programs and facilities that enhance learning\, wellness and quality of life within and outside the Steel Valley. Today\, we serve over 17\,000 residents of Munhall\, Homestead\, West Homestead\, Whitaker\, and families in nearby communities such as West Mifflin\, Lincoln Place\, Hays\, Greenfield\, Squirrel Hill\, Duquesne and more. The Carnegie of Homestead uplifts and improves the lives of youth\, families and the elderly\, by serving as a community activities center for families and groups throughout the Mon Valley. \nThe Library holds 3\,000\,000 county-wide items in collection including books\, audiobooks\, DVDs\, CDs\, newspapers\, magazines and eResources. There are nearly 7\,000 cardholders (35% of our residents) and on average 733 people visit daily. 30 computers provide over 30\,000 online access sessions annually by the general public\, including disadvantaged individuals who cannot afford home computers and online services. The library holds over 1\,000 learning programs annually in which almost 20\,000 participate of all ages. On any given day\, a variety of activities are happening: toddler and children story time\, arts and crafts; science and art classes for homeschooled children; literacy outreach & book distribution to 30+ local preschools and daycare centers; homework assistance for teens equipped with computers and media; laptops and iPads with college-level computer programming\, and STEAM (Science\, Technology\, Arts\, Math) workshops including robotics in the Makerspace classroom; book clubs for teens through seniors\, knitting classes\, crafting workshops for adults\, and cultural programs such as Japanese or Russian language and psyanky egg decorating! \nThe Athletic Club hosts 1\,100 members who pay affordable fees to attend in Yoga\, Water Aerobics\, Spinning\, Tai Chi\, and Zumba classes in the fitness studios\, enjoy our heated indoor swimming pool\, gymnasium with a walking track\, and train for baseball/softball using our indoor batting cages. 200 youth participate in year-round sports lessons and 230 adults enjoy year-round basketball and volleyball leagues. 150 children and adults learned to swim\, participated in aquatics exercise and scuba instruction classes. 550 seniors are active members of our Silver Sneakers/Silver and Fit exercise classes geared to older adults. \nThe Music Hall seats 1\,045 guests in an intimate atmosphere that has changed very little from the original venue. In 2019\, 50\,000 patrons traveled from Western Pennsylvania and across the country to see nationally known entertainers such as American Idol\, Dave Chappelle\, Pete Davidson\, Boz Scaggs\, Sturgill Simpson\, Jeff Goldblum\, and more. The Music Hall uniquely serves also as a “community house” to local nonprofits offering meeting space for civic engagement\, programs and services such as graduation commencement exercises\, naturalization ceremonies\, school band concerts\, church plays and local dance recitals. Year-round\, the music hall serves as an economic driver for nearby restaurants\, retail establishments and hotels – for every 50 shows held\, the Carnegie brings over $1\,000\,000 in revenue to the Waterfront and Eighth Avenue business districts. Space rentals and ticket sales provide revenue to support the facility and programs that serve our community. “The Carnegie of Homestead is a textbook example of social enterprise and sustainability reinvention\,” experts say\, “by using revenue from the music hall and its fitness club memberships to stay viable.” The library’s core mission has been preserved\, and then some: you can check out a book or use a computer\, take a Spinning class\, learn to swim or enjoy a concert. \nAndrew Carnegie’s vision is alive today as the Carnegie of Homestead continues its dedication to the community by providing vital resources to families throughout the Mon Valley.
