Our Location
Waldorf School of Pittsburgh is located in the Bloomfield neighborhood of the city, housed in a Victorian-era mansion. A historic landmark, the school and its surrounding grounds take up the end of an entire city block. Our location lends itself well to our summer camp. We have large classrooms, a spacious auditorium, and nearly 3 acres of outdoor green space — well suited to house all of our unique camp activities. We are within walking distance to many gardens, parks, theaters, and more!
