The South Side Slopes Neighborhood Association wants you to showcase your holiday spirit with a home decorating and light up event!
A local photographer will take photos of the neighborhood between December 16-30, 2024. If you would like to have your house photographed and show off your holiday and neighborhood spirit, please register at the link below by December 14 so we can snap a photo of your house and include you in the photo album we’ll share with everyone on our email list and through our social media channels.
Get Clark Griswold crazy or keep it classy! (It’s not a contest or a light fight). Happy Holidays!
Do you love to garden? Are you excited to show off your green thumb this year? Then enter the South Side Slopes Flower Contest, open to all Slopes residents!
Focusing on the front-facing façade of your home, we will have $100 giftcard prizes for:
Best Simple Planter – for those with little space but go above and beyond with a single pot or window box
Best Front Garden – for those who have more than a simple planter and want to go all in
Most Popular – where your vote will determine the best out there!
The space must be at least 80% green (we love a good statue but we want to see your green thumbs at work.) Also, it must be visible from the street or a public space.
Submissions must be in by Sunday, July 28th, with garden spaces to be ready to photograph by Friday, August 9th. Photographs would likely be taken over the weekend of August 9th, or the next sunny day.

This short survey aims to capture your experiences, preferences, and suggestions, helping us to make informed decisions that support our community. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts!

The South Side Slopes Flower Contest aims to beautify the neighborhood and showcase the gardening talents of our residents.

By participating in the contest, you can contribute to a more vibrant and welcoming neighborhood for everyone.
The South Side Slopes Neighborhood Association (SSSNA) is soliciting ideas for a new mural on the side of the Arlington Recreation Center (2201 Salisbury St, Pittsburgh, PA 15210).
On Saturday, Oct. 15, 2022 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. we need a bit of your elbow grease to help beautify the hillside at the corner of Barry & Mission Streets. Through the City of Pittsburgh, the South Side Slopes Neighborhood Association was awarded a Love Your Block grant to beautify the site. Join neighbors to work by preparing the ground, plant flowering shrubs and perennials and spread mulch. We also hope to level a spot near the top of the hillside and build/place a sitting bench. Join us and bring a friend or three. Lunch is provided!
The 2022 South Side Slopes calendar is filled with beautiful pictures from your neighbors. Calendars are available for pick-up now in time for the holiday season. You can pick up calendars you ordered online at Hilltop Coffee (2400 Arlington Ave).
Choose your favorite photo from three of the best submissions from our talented neighbors. Votes must be entered by Tuesday, November 2, 2021. The winning image will be featured on the cover of the upcoming 2022 South Side Slopes calendar. Printed calendars will be available for sale soon – just in time for the holiday gift season!
