Is anyone else annoyed that I just titled this post with that phrase? I am. Where on earth has this year gone?
It seems that every time I turn around, something amazing that I was looking forward to has already happened. Sometimes I missed it and sometimes I didn’t. With less than 2 months left of 2010, there’s so much happening here at PGC that I know I’m going to feel like I missed when I come back to work after the New Year. Let me tell you about them so maybe you won’t miss them!
There are still tons of 2 hour workshops available! Blown Glass Ornaments has proven to be one of our most popular classes once again and almost every section is full, but Flamecicles, and Fused Glass Ornaments, as well as the less seasonal options of Paperweights, Fused Tiles, Wine Stoppers and more all have ample availability. These provide such an incredible opportunity to make a unique handmade gift for someone you love! I personally have a hard time giving away my creations and prefer to keep them for myself, which is a valid option for you as well ;)
Our annual holiday sale which hosts nearly 2 dozen local artists selling their creations has been extended an additional day! At the same time our friends over at Pittsburgh Center for the Arts will have their annual expanded holiday shop open so there’s a multitude of options for local, handmade, creative gifts this year!
And of course the Holiday Make-It-Now on Dec 4 as well!
On Dec 17, our High School Students will hold their end of session exhibition to display all their creations from this Fall. It’s always really exciting to see what the students at different levels learn over the course of their 10 week course.
In addition to all that’s left in 2010, we’re busily working away at what’s to come for 2011!
We kicked off our 10th anniversary in October and 2011 will be filled with exciting exhibitions, events, and classes to continue the momentous celebration. We would have never made it to 10 years old without the support of our artists, students, and donors so we hope you’ll enjoy all the programming we’ve come up with to celebrate our success!
