Talk:Mattress Factory

Error in "Gallery" section
The "Poem House buildings" pictured in the "Gallery" section are not off-site residential buildings for Mattress Factory artists. The building at 408 Sampsonia Way (painted with the poem "Writing in 3-D" by Huang Xiang) is part of City of Asylum/Pittsburgh, an organization that provides sanctuary to writers exiled under threat of death, imprisonment, or persecution in their native countries. And 410 Sampsonia Way houses the Tom Museum, a living museum of puppets, sculptures, paintings, and art experiments.

More descriptions needed.
The introductory sentences are awkwardly written - "presents art you can get into". There is some information about the history of the museum, but very little about notable events regarding the museum since its establishment and its current activity. Many aspects of the museum's function are mentioned such as the artist residency program, but not expanded upon. It would be useful to give examples of work produced from this program and artists who have participated. Also, descriptions of the works, at least from the permanent collection, would be very good to include in this article, as many readers might have trouble imagining what kind of exhibitions the museum hosts (the introduction did state that the Mattress Factory is one of the few museums of its kind).

 * Yes, these are all good suggestions. The phrase "art you can get into" is actually Aolivex (talk) 21:22, 31 January 2015 (UTC)the organization's slogan and it should be marked as such, for the purposes of neutrality.
