Randyland is an art museum in the North Side section of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It is widely regarded as one of America's most colorful public art landmarks. Randy Gilson is the founder of this museum, which showcases found object art. Randyland received the Mayor's Award for Public Art for 2019,Randyland has played an important role in the cultural rejuvenation
of Pittsburgh. It has received international attention through viral
lists, and is among the most photographed places on Instagram. Each
visit will have many different items because many new things are always
being added, and most of the previous things will have been moved around. |

Artist Randy Gilson welcomes the people of Pittsburgh and tourists to visit his unique, colorful courtyard, known as The Mexican War Streets Historic District of Pittsburgh's north side. It is open almost every day 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. However, it MAY close during the winter depending on the weather. The brightly colored home functions as a studio for other like-minded artists. On these dates, there was no charge to enter, which of course, may always be subject to change. |

There is so much to see here. Karen Duquette would love to spend a full day here just taking close-ups of all the colorful, unique and exciting items. But there was not enough time for that to actually happen. |
