Last Days Cafe ~ Pittsburgh Artist Registry
Featuring Guest Speaker Lea Donatelli, Program Manager, Office of Public Art Presented in partnership with the Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council and the New Hazlett Theater
May 27, 2009 5:30pm - 8:30pm
Artists, musicians, writers, dancers, poets, performers, and arts administrators are invited to stop in, enjoy complimentary refreshments and talk about projects, plans, ideas, and interests. Often the key to unique opportunities is discovering who is doing what and interacting regularly with a circle of colleagues who are working creatively.
This month Lea Donatelli, Program Manager, Office of Public Art, will present information on the Pittsburgh Artist Registry and demonstrate how to create your own artist profile. The Pittsburgh Artist Registry is a free on-line database of visual, literary, and performing artists in southwestern PA. It is free to join and free to browse!
Last Days Cafe also provides a forum through which Pittsburgh's creative community can become more familiar with the resources available to them as they create new work, consider forming a new organization, or think about how, when and where to show their work.
Please RSVP to DSciranka(AT)aol.com.
