About Zen Center
Zen Center of Pittsburgh is a Soto Zen Buddhist Temple founded in 1999. Currently the only Soto Zen Temple in Western Pennsylvania with a resident priest, it serves the community by offering daily meditation and services. ZCP is situated just thirty minutes north of Pittsburgh, PA. Our retreat center sits on fourteen isolated acres with stunning views of the Western Pennsylvania forests, thus offering the perfect location for personal and group retreats in the Zen tradition. Serving as the head priest is Rev. Kyoki Roberts assisted by Associate Priest Rev. Jisen Coghlan.
Please note: We have decided to suspend meeting at the Mattress Factory on Tuesday mornings. We would like to thank Barbara Luderowski and all the staff for their support these many years.
