[Highland Park] found dog
by Breanna Jay 05 Dec '12

05 Dec '12

Neighbors, On Wednesday (December 5th) - a dog was found running down N. Negley between Jackson & Wellesley. The dog is an unaltered male pit bull whose coat is kind of a light brindle and he has some white spots. He is very friendly and was wearing a harness but no collar or other identification and he was also a big mover so I didn't get a good picture of his face. He went home with a neighbor named Ty who works for a vet and was planning on getting him scanned for a chip as soon as possible. If this is your dog or you recognize him (sorry about the bad face picture) - you can call Ty at 724.777.7512 THANKS! Breanna Jay

The Dirt Bag is the latest innovation coming out of the studio and into Pittsburgh homes - a clay kit for families to do together at home.

After the making, families can bring their creations to Union Project’s studio to be fired, get a Dirt Bag refill, and see artists at work in a community studio. The Dirt Bag Kick Off Presentation will introduce families to the kit and provide each family with their own kit to use at home. In order to improve The Dirt Bag, Union Project will be following up with each family to collect feedback on their experience. Help us refine The Dirt Bag by testing it out! The presentation is FREE, each family will be given a Dirt Bag to take home. Quantities and space are limited; registration guarantees your family a spot.
