In its 13th year as an organization, and seventh season of original programming, KST continues to demonstrate its commitment to Pittsburgh artists and audiences, supporting the presentation of risk-taking new work by emerging artists and arts organizations. KST operates two professionally-equipped venues along the Penn Avenue arts corridor. The historic Kelly Strayhorn Theater (formerly the Regent Theatre, 1914) is a 350-seat multi-arts venue, and the last survivor of East Liberty’s nine original theaters. Noted Pittsburghers and KST namesakes Gene Kelly and Billy Strayhorn are among the 80 area artists honored in the theater’s Gallery of Stars. Just blocks away, KST’s Alloy Studios play host to intimate performance events and provide creative space for artist residencies, Alloy School dance classes, and performance rehearsals, as well as community art and music programs. Major funding for KST Presents is provided by The Heinz Endowments, Richard King Mellon Foundation, The Benter Foundation, The Pittsburgh Foundation, and Allegheny Regional Asset District. *# # #* -- *Linda Hoye* *Director of Development* Kelly Strayhorn Theater 5941 Penn Avenue, Pittsburgh PA 15206 412.363.3000 x2 <412.363.3000%20x211>*19* | *linda*@kelly-strayhorn.org <george@kelly-strayhorn.org> KST’s Alloy Studios + Administrative Offices 5530 Penn Avenue, Pittsburgh PA 15206 *Cell (412) 855-7806*
