As we prepare to take a short break over the holidays, we thought we’d leave you with this: a sampling of gorgeous photos portraying the holiday spirit throughout Pittsburgh by our many talented Instagrammers. Thanks to our own grammer, photographer and writer Tom O’ Connor for putting this together. His photos are included here, too.

And from all of us to all of you, have a wonderful holiday. We look forward to seeing you again in early January for another stellar year highlighting the amazing people moving our city forward.

xo,

from all of us at NEXTpittsburgh
