CREATE Festival

CREATE Festival (Changing Realities with Art and Technology Explorations) is a creative industries festival held every spring in Downtown Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.[1] The festival, which began as the Design, Art + Technology Awards (DATA), has been held annually each spring since 2009.[2] The festival features all genres of art and technology, focusing on the most innovative work of the year. Since 2015, CREATE has been part of the Three Rivers Arts Festival.[3]

The festival originated in 2009 as the Design, Art and Technology Awards (DATA). Over the years it evolved from a grass-roots art and technology exhibition into a multi-day festival[4] featuring talks, workshops, interactive performances, parties and an awards ceremony.[5][6][7] The centerpiece of the festival is the Innovation Salon, an interactive art and technology exhibition.[8]

CREATE has also partnered with: the Andy Warhol Museum, the Pittsburgh Opera, CEOs for Cities and the Carnegie Museum of Art.[9]

In 2012, CREATE hosted Innovation City [10] with Carnegie Mellon University, showcasing an array of art and technology at SXSW Interactive 2013.
