The featured artist of the event is Scott Ward, creator of “American Gayothic” which is just awesome.  Scott is from Seattle and is a lovely man.  Our great friend Kerry Kennedy will be carrying a line of Scott's notecards in his Northside shop, K.S. Kennedy Floral so even if you are not in the market […]

We made it just before the skies opened up!  I was hurried along to my table by the very organized PR crew and am now settling in to absorb.  Ledcat went in pursuit of refreshments to fortify us, but she's already been waylaid by multiple persons so it might be awhile until I get some […]

This promises to be fun.  Tonight, Ledcat and I are heading out to the annual Celebrate Life, Celebrate Art auction to benefit Persad Center.  From there, we'll be liveblogging about the auction and the art and the people and all that good stuff. I have an official press perch near a stairwell somewhere from whence […]

Readers.

Mayor Ravenstahl is getting some heat for supporting Anthony Coghill in the District 4 City Council race.  Coghill did not receive the endorsement of the Allegheny County Democratic Committee. Huh.  I've heard rumblings that the Mayor is “disappointed” he did not receive the endorsement of the Steel City Stonewall Democrats.  Other rumblings suggest that there […]
