Sat. 6 PM Protest of Corbett's Arts Education Award, Outside the $750 a plate gala in Pburgh

"I hope you are planning to attend the “Operatic Rally” on Saturday at 6PM, staged by our friends at OnePittsburgh to greet the Governor before he attends the $750 per plate gala. Feel free to wear your Viking hats and other operatic costumes."

"the Operatic Rally for Saturday evening is shaping up to be great family fun. There will be a free reception starting at 5PM at the corner of 22nd and Liberty in the Strip District with hot dogs, veggie dogs, and cotton candy. Feel free to wear your opera costumes and bring an instrument (even a pot and spoon) for a grand performance of the people’s band. Maybe the fat lady will even sing."

I hope the turnout was a good one. I wish I could be there.

PSEA House of Delegates met in Pittsburgh LAST weekend. Bad timing. Darn.

Based upon a couple postings, it appears the rally in Pittsburgh went well, and was a great deal of fun. Many people were there who each deserved a lifetime award in arts and music.
