Big Heart Trivia! Free Trivia Night at Wigle Whiskey

Most Monday nights, Wigle Whiskey hosts Batnam Nights, where they open their tasting room to a different Pittsburgh area non-profit and donate a portion of the proceeds to the organization.  This Monday night the Batnam night will be a Valentine’s trivia night to benefit a local historic preservation effort.

On Monday, February 13, 2017, Friends of Albright is hosting a special trivia night at Wigle Whiskey in the strip district – Big Heart Trivia.  Friends of Albright, which I helped to establish in 2014, is a group of community members that has been working to preserve and re-purpose the Albright Church Building in Bloomfield into a community space.

The trivia night is named after a note card found in the church archives, this evening will offer a chance to learn more about the effort to save the Albright United Methodist church and a chance to meet some of the folks who are involved with Pittsburgh historic preservation.

Trivia night will be hosted by Dave Mansueto who runs the popular weekly quiz night at Brillobox each Wednesday.

The event is free to attend, drinks will be available for purchase and there will be food provided.

Learn more about the history of this 110 year old church and study up for the trivia by reading the East Liberty Valley Historic Society’s article Albright United Methodist Church building here.
