Pittsburgh Glass Center hasn't added a story.

Pittsburgh Glass Corner : A gallery and residence for rising leaders in the glass art community.

Pittsburgh Glass Center is "turning a corner" on Penn Avenue.

Pittsburgh Glass Corner , our additional gallery and residence (at the corner at North Graham Street and Penn Avenue) is just two blocks from Pittsburgh Glass Center. You can help us transform this building that has been a concern of the community for years—first as a nuisance bar and then as a vacant storefront. We invite you to join us and clean up Pittsburgh Glass Corner as we set the final touches on this much needed space!

 

With your support Pittsburgh Glass Corner will become a place for:

  1. Exploring and experiencing glass art in a brand new exhibition space
  2. Youth artists to have a dedicated space for student art receptions
  3. Artists to relax after a long day creating in the studio
  4. The community to gather and share ideas
Map of PGC buildings

Penn Avenue's most recent strategic plan called out the need for more opportunities for diverse, community social engagements. Working together we can convert Pittsburgh Glass Corner into a space that will do just that. Pittsburgh Glass Center thanks you for your commitment to art, youth, and community on Penn Avenue.
