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.
