Artist Talk
Date:
 Thursday, June 26, 2025
Time: 
6:30pm-7:30pm
Description: 
Julia’s residency proposal focused on “windfall,” an appreciation of resources and opportunities that are there for the taking when we make a point to notice and value them. Since January, Julia has paid attention to Pittsburgh, and Pittsburgh has paid her back-- with inspiration, raw materials, and the occasional tattered dollar bill! In a relatively short time, this experience has greatly expanded Julia’s scope as a carver and jeweler. As her residency nears its end, Julia will share insights from the projects and experiments that could only have come from being in this particular place, at this particular time.

Location:
 Contemporary Craft - Raphael Building (5645 Butler St., Pittsburgh, PA 15201)

A majestic tower in Pittsburgh that defines the city. It stands tall and magnificent in its glory.

Cathedral of Learning

In fact, this place has nothing to do with the church, or we can only say that its appearance is like an ancient European cathedral. This is a teaching building, but it is very magnificent and beautiful, and you can go in and take a look inside.
