wanted: a lot of hope

and in other news, James Gyre just told me he found out that the builidng he and Lara are trying to buy on Penn Ave. for a new community center is being signed for tomorrow, either by them or the other group that submitted a proposal. So he asked that anyone who cares (and you should cuz this space will be awesome) should put out some positive energy that things go well at the meeting (8pm tomorrow) and everything turns out for the best. If it ends up in their hands this project could really become a necessary turning point for the Pittsburgh radical arts scene. So put your hopes out there.

So, did they get the building? I'm in Pittsburgh and am curious.

no, but they're undeterred and working on new plans to try and get another space. If you're in PIttsburgh, you should get in touch.
