Upcoming Events at Sweetwater

Throughout the fall, Sweetwater will be celebrating its annual MAVUNO Festival of African American Art and Culture. Mavuno comes from the Swahili for “harvest” and this year we will be our 23rd celebration. Created by community members and art enthusiasts who were inspired to highlight the African American artistic accomplishments in Sewickley and the surrounding areas, the festival provides inspiring and enriching learning experiences for all. We hope you join us for all of our MAVUNO events and celebrate with us!

Third Thursdays at Sweetwater: Celebrating fine and performing arts in our region, Sweetwater will be hosting a new annual Third Thursday series this year, beginning in January. Each month, we will feature artists of all genres and offer a variety of educational and enriching experiences. Our goal with this series is to continue to engage with community members and create inclusive, meaningful, and inspiring experiences in the fine and performing arts. We can’t wait to see you each Third Thursday this year!
