Designing the Convention Center

Back in 2011, the Pennsylvania Convention Center expanded its building by a whopping 62 percent, making it the 14th largest facility in the nation.

The Pennsylvania Convention Center Authority (PCCA) recently launched its Expansion Art Acquisition Project, a 60-day "Open Call" competition to acquire more than $1.2 million in original works by Pennsylvania-based artists.
