| - Schenley Plaza is home to many fun activities spring through fall. If you live, work, or go to school in Oakland, Squirrel Hill, or Shadyside, you are missing out if you have not been here yet.
Schenley Plaza has plenty of grass, benches, fountains, food options, and a nice tent. The library and museums are also located directly next to the Plaza. Home to The Porch and Conflict Kitchen, you can get some really unique lunches here. There are tables to eat at in the Tent and in the sun as well. You could also come and ride the PNC Carousel on a school or work break.
There is also a fantastic free yoga in the park here in the summers, which bumps the Plaza up to five stars for me. If I was here in the summers, I would go to all of the classes. I make sure to attend the May and September classes, though, because the teachers here are top-notch. The classes are very aerobic, and there are enough teachers to help you with poses. It's better than most studios in Pittsburgh! They also have Tai Chi and some other summer-y things.
As a student, I have ended up at many gatherings in the Tent, and it is a nice space. There are also frequently concerts and other large scale events in the Plaza.
Take a look online, and keep a lookout for the awesome free events here!
