At August Wilson House, we know that the power of people, the power of place, and the power of art to create community. We saw all of this positive energy and power come together as more than 7,000 gathered for the 8th annual August Wilson Birthday Block Party in the historic Hill District. On behalf of Denise Turner, Executive Director of AWH, and the AWH Board, we thank you and want to share the excitement and energy this celebration video. We are also grateful to @emmai_alaquiva for his genius in creating it as a moving and amazing tribute to Mr. Wilson, AWH, and the community. We also thank the Heinz Family Foundation for the use of Mr. Wilson’s voice.

Introducing #MonologueMonday!
Today, we recognize the new generation of artists as they discuss how August Wilson has inspired them in their craft. Amani, Jade, Jay, and Meleana are the winners of this year's August Wilson Monologue Competition held in Pittsburgh.
As August Wilson passed along his mother's legacy through his creative work, AWH will now pass along his.
How has August Wilson impacted your life? Let us know!
