Open Call to Crafters
Digging Pitt Gallery – Side I and Digging Pitt Too will house Bright and Shiny Holiday this year. We wanted to give you an early heads-up so that you have time to prepare. Above is a general timeline for the exhibit.
All mediums are welcome. Please be sure that your work is ready to hang, display or install. Work may be two- or three-dimensional. No limit to the number of pieces submitted, emphasis on cash-and-carry work.
It’s open season on creeps at Digging Pitt Too. Your stories are about to be told. Digging Pitt Too invites you to share a story about the most awful-lest creep you know, in time for the Halloween holiday. Who knows the creepiest boss? Who went out with the creepiest blind date? What has absolutely given you the willies?
Bring your stories to Digging Pitt Too on October 28 at 5pm and we’ll see who has the most harrowing, hair-raising, skin-crawling encounter of the creepiest kind.
