Art Demeo
Senior Director of Community Greening Projects
As the Conservancy’s senior director of community greening projects, Art has a passion for greening neighborhoods and working with community members to plant and install gardens, flowers, trees, raingardens and bioswales across Western Pennsylvania. He leads the Conservancy’s on-the-ground implementation of its community greening work that is not only helping to beautify the region, but also solving problems related to pollinator habitat decline and stormwater runoff. He has established innovative solutions in urban greenspaces in his hometown of New York City and across the Pittsburgh region. Art has a degree in urban and community forestry from Unity Environmental University.
