Mattress Factory’s public facilities are comprised of three buildings throughout the Mexican War Streets neighborhood of Pittsburgh’s Northside. 500 Sampsonia is a large 6-story brick warehouse with an attached Administrative Office Building. All galleries at at 500 Sampsonia Way are fully wheelchair accessible by elevator with accessible restrooms and water fountains on the lower level of the museum and in the Education Studio.
There is reserved and marked accessible parking with a wheelchair-accessible ramp into the front entrance of the museum. All public education programs take place in wheelchair-accessible spaces—lobby, education studio and galleries. Admissions Desk and event seating is flexible and always inclusive of patrons needing accommodation for mobility devices or other needs. A wheelchair is available at the museum’s Admissions Desk free of charge.
The museum campus also includes two additional buildings located at 516 Sampsonia Way and 1414 Monterey Street that have been repurposed for use as galleries. Because of the age of these structures, only the first floors of these buildings are wheelchair accessible.
Give artists the time, space and resources to create remarkable works of art that help us see our world in new ways.
