“The Art Show @ Pitt-Greensburg is intended to showcase the artistic talent of the campus community as well as the talent of those who live and work in southwestern Pennsylvania,” said Julia Sefcheck, Alumni Relationship officer and show organizer. “We have an amazing selection of artwork, some of which will be for sale by the artists. It’s exciting to see the great response we’ve had for our first show.”
This exhibit is supported in part by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, a state agency funded by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency—as part of the Council’s Project Stream grant program, administrated locally by the Pennsylvania Rural Art Alliance.
