Welcome to Allegheny RiverTrail Park
The Community's Front Yard
The mission of Allegheny RiverTrail Park (ARP) – formerly known as Aspinwall Riverfront Park – is to enhance the quality of life for the community by providing free public access to parkland and multi-use trails along the Allegheny River. We are committed to riverfront revitalization and inclusive community engagement through recreational, educational, cultural and social activities for a diverse population.
ARP is an independent, non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation as well as a PA State Certified Land Trust and is unaffiliated with any government entity. The park is managed by an all-volunteer board of directors with daily operations handled by a hard-working and dedicated leadership staff. The park is maintained through earned income and private fundraising, not taxpayer dollars.

Mushroom Cultivation Workshop
Saturday, April 5th
1:00-3:00 PM
Do you like mushrooms? Are you interested in growing your own? Join us Saturday, April 5th at the park for a hands-on workshop where you will learn all about how to grow your own mushrooms on logs.
This workshop will cover the basics of growing mushrooms on logs in your own backyard. We will focus on shiitake, however the techniques can be applied to a number of other mushroom species.
Foundations of Bachata
April 1 – May 20
7:00PM-8:30PM
You’ll learn to dance bachata while building your confidence, becoming a better dancer across styles, and having more fun!
These courses do NOT use pattern-based learning, as memorized patterns can prohibit creativity. You will learn the foundational elements of Bachata and will learn to create your own style of dancing using those basics, variations, and concepts of musicality.
