(Pittsburgh, PA) The NFL recently announced its artist partnerships and creative activations that spotlight Pittsburgh’s vibrant art, design and
sports culture for the 2026 NFL Draft presented by Bud Light on April 23rd-25th. The league will collaborate with two Pittsburgh artists, Kim Fox and Burton Morris, who
will each create pieces that honor all 32 clubs; design a stunning projection show on the centrally located Wyndham Hotel; and visually welcome fans in NFL Draft creative throughout the region. Kim Fox is a Pittsburgh-based mixed-metal artist. She will create a special art installation for the Player Walkway, which is the path that each prospect will take as they get drafted to their new team and walk onto the Main Stage. Burton Morris, a Pittsburgh native and pop artist, is creating 32 separate pieces that will be displayed as one large installation in the Prospect Green Room built by Lowe’s. Fox’s installation will feature handcrafted mixed-metal interpretations of all 32 NFL team marks, with each piece made from tin and mixed-metals which are in a quiltlike pattern. Over the past few months, she has spent hours creating unique pieces of artwork to bring each of the logos of the clubs to life. In the process, Fox combines reclaimed wood, vintage maps, collected tins and other found materials to manufacture each piece of art. She overlays these materials and patches the pieces together to highlight the uniqueness of each city. Fox is also including hidden symbolism pertinent to each city within her pieces. All 32 of Morris’ 20×20” pieces are customized with his signature “energy lines” to highlight unique team colors for each team, and they are built on a steel frame to honor Pittsburgh’s history. Authentic team helmets are also seamlessly attached to each piece to create dynamic, 3D mixed-media work celebrating all 32 clubs. The NFL is also partnering with The Andy Warhol Museum and its Youth Workforce Program to bring a live Pop Art studio to the NFL Draft Red Carpet presented by Toyota to celebrating pop art’s origins in Pittsburgh and to highlight the league’s larger commitment to art-driven storytelling. NFL prospects will co-create silkscreen self-portraits on the red carpet, printing them on hand-painted backgrounds to transform their images into custom works of art. The final portraits will accompany players down the carpet for photos and interviews to give media and fans a firsthand look at Warhol’s iconic silkscreen process in action. The pieces will also be available for prospects to take with them as they enter their journey into the NFL.

(Allegheny County, PA) A man will face time in jail in Allegheny County for providing fentanyl that killed a fifteen-year-old girl from Oakdale in 2024. Twenty-nine-year-old Shakeirs Foster pleaded guilty in court yesterday to involuntary manslaughter and delivery and was sentenced to two and a half to six years in state prison. Investigators tracked the fentanyl delivery to Foster after investigative methods which included reviewing cellphone evidence and talking with witnesses. According to a release from Pennsylvania Attorney General Dave Sunday’s office, witnesses saw Foster enter the victim’s apartment on May 7th, 2024, and leave a short time later. 911 was called after the victim became unconscious.

(Pittsburgh, PA) The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette will no longer cease publishing in May because it is being acquired by a nonprofit media group. Block Communications Inc. of Toledo, Ohio is the current owner of the paper and has operated the publication since 1927, but they announced back on January 7th that the 240-year-old newspaper will cease its operations on May 3rd. However, the newspaper announced today that Block Communications Inc., is selling it to the Venetoulis Institute for Local Journalism, which is based in Baltimore, Maryland and is the publisher of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Baltimore Banner. The sale will go into effect on May 4th, which is the day after the paper was supposed to publish its final edition. The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette will be the second news organization that is operated by the nonprofit that founded the Baltimore Banner in 2022. Newsroom and local business leadership of the newspaper will remain in Pittsburgh, while its name will stay unchanged, and other functions will be combined with the Venetoulis Institute for Local Journalism. The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette started back in 1786, and it is the first newspaper to open west of the Allegheny Mountains. If it had closed, it would have left Pittsburgh as the nation’s largest community without a city-based paper. The terms of the deal are unknown at this time but according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, it would continue to publish print editions on Thursday and Sunday.
