Allegheny RAD Pass

For over 25 years, the Allegheny Regional Asset District (RAD) has invested in Allegheny County’s quality of life through financial support of public libraries, parks & trails, regional attractions, arts & cultural organizations, sports & civic facilities, public transit, and local municipal services with revenue from an additional, countywide one percent sales and use tax. Since its inception, RAD has resulted in over $4 billion invested in the region. Visit radworkshere.org for more information.

The North Hills Art Center has been a RAD recipient since 1995. In previous years we held a one day event for families in the fall called a RAD Day. Starting in 2026 we are participating in RAD Pass, and are now able to offer free specialty programs throughout the year! Registration for these programs is available below and at radpass.org with an Allegheny County Library Card.
