Gist Street Reading Series Friday August 1, 2008

Dear Gist Street,

Already, it's time for another reading. We're still recovering from the cookout, but THIS Friday August 1, 2008 we have Rusty Barnes (fiction) and John Rybicki (poetry). www.giststreet.org for bios. It will be amazing.

James Simon's Sculpture Studio, 305 Gist Street-Uptown

Doors open at 7:15; readings begin at 8pm $5 at the door. There's a raffle with books, produce, and other unlikely stuff. We'll have the reading outside in the backyard if it's nice. BYOB. No grilling this month, but feel free to bring food. I'm making a plum pie and a blackberry tart. Hope to see you there!

Sherrie

Gist Street Reading Series Back Sat July 19, 2008

From Gist Street Reading Series!

Hello Gist Street! It has been too long, I know. I'm here to give an advance warning signal. Yes, after six long months the reading series is about to start up again. Right now your job is to start thinking about what you're bringing to the cookout. We're featuring McSweeney's Press. Saturday, July 19th. Eating starts at 7pm. Readings start at 8pm. For those who are new to the cookout, it's a sampler of readings, about six readers reading for about 10 minutes each. Right now the McSweeney's poets are Atsuro Riley, Patrick Lawler, Courtney Queeney, and Gerry LaFemina. Bios are listed on our website. Fiction is coming very soon.
www.giststreet.org

It's also a sampling of food: a potluck. We have a big grill and (after 8 years) an experienced team of grillers. We'll have an assortment of sauces and marinades and herbs plucked from the garden to help with this task. Pasta salad? Cherry pie? Chocolate cake? Chicken? Whole salmon? Tofu burgers? Watermelon? Farro salad with red lentils, goat cheese, roasted onions, and peas in a citrus-parmesan vinegarette?(Well, that's actually what I'm bringing.) Start thinking. James Simon's Sculpture Studio, 305 Gist Street - Uptown. It's in the backyard. BYOB. $5. The raffle includes books, fresh produce, pesto, eggs from the chickens, a drawing by John Fleenor, and a Gist Street fish by our host James Simon.We hope you haven't forgotten about us. We have a great line up for 2008. More soon,
Sherrie-- Gist Street Reading Series 305 Gist Street, Pittsburgh, PA

Kente Arts Alliance presents A Tribute to Roy Eldridge, Kelly Strayhorn Theater April 19 2008

Honoring a jazz legend: The late, great Pittsburgh trumpet player Roy Eldridge...

Kente Arts Alliance presents A Tribute to Roy Eldridge

Featuring Steve Turre Quintet

Saturday, April 19 at 8:00 pm

http://www.kelly-strayhorn.org/schedule.htm

Kelly Strayhorn Theater in East Liberty, Phone: (412) 363-3000 5941 Penn Avenue Pittsburgh, PA 15206 info@kelly-strayhorn.org

Tickets: $25 general admission in advance; $30 at the door; $20 (for groups of 15 or more - only in advance and through ProArts Tickets) Available: ProArts Tickets 412-394-3353 or www.proartstickets.org ; Dorsey's Records (Homewood); Paul's CDs (Bloomfield); Stedeford's (Northside)

One of the world's most preeminent jazz innovators, trombonist and sea shellist, Steve Torre has consistently won both the Readers' and Critics' polls in JazzTimes, Downbeat, and Jazziz for best trombone and for best miscellaneous instrumentalist (shells). Roy Eldridge (1911 - 1989) aka "Little Jazz", was born and reared in Pittsburgh, and is considered one of the greatest trumpet players in jazz history. His range and rhythmic skill made him perhaps the finest trumpeter of the swing era of the 1930's. His sophisticated use of harmony resulted in him sometimes being seen as the link between Louis Armstrong-era swing music and Dizzy Gillespie-era bebop. The band will conduct a free Jazz Workshop for Youth at the theater, 2 -3 PM. For more information call 412-322-0292.
