Martini Madness
This is the year to round out those martini glass collections! SCC will be hosting our 4th annual “Martini Madness” on Thursday, September 11th. We will be featuring a variety of artists, including George Ponzini, ceramicist Chris Longwell, Smyer’s Glass Studio out of California, and several of our own local artists from the Pittsburgh Glass Center, including Jessica Rutherford, who will be doing a live demonstration. The best bartenders in the city will be serving up specialty martinis along with delicious hors d’oeuvres and entertainment, all free with the purchase of a glass. Glass prices range from $30 to $200. Members will have the first pick of glasses and a meet and greet with the artists at 5:30 pm, half an hour prior to the official opening. There is a $20 registration fee that will be applied toward the purchase of a glass. Must be over 21 years of age to attend this event. Purchase Now.
