Norooz 2015: Celebrating in Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh is not only home to one of the greatest football teams, Pittsburgh Steelers, it is home to some of the greatest culture you will ever experience. With a population of almost 400,000; Pittsburgh is not only an exciting city, it is a city that I hold very near and dear to my heart. It is also my second home. So, what is happening in the steel city for Norooz this year?
