SUMMARY:Furry Neighborhood Variety Show at the Glitterbox Theater | July 6
DESCRIPTION:Furry Neighborhood Variety Show at the Glitterbox Theater | July 6\n Furry sort of show at The Glitterbox Theater! This showcase is intended to bring together a cast of characters to perform for the local and visiting audiences at The Glitterbox Theater closer to the end of Anthrocon (Sunday at 2 PM and Monday at 7 PM). The two days of performances could be different in lineup depending on availability. \nSunday July 5th at 2pm AND Monday July 6th at 7pm \nThe Glitterbox Theater – 210 W 8th Avenue\, Homestead\, PA 15210 \nActs Paid from Tickette Sales \nSubmit your performance! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfQ_RqEpFvuP5FwZtG7LDsBhxH0AB7X3XQ-Dps2f7u2dNiaVw/viewform — Submissions will be accepted on a rolling basis\, and effort will be put into configuring the show(s) in a way that many people can perform. Acts will be arranged in a way that promotes smooth transitions from act to act\, which could involve collaboration between artists. \nAbout the hosts: \nLibbyPuppy (They/Them) is a very good girl and co-host for this variety. They like doggy paddling around the pool\, reading comics in the grass\, and going out on w-a-l-k-s to sniff out ALL of the Free Library Boxes. \nKramer Dog (He/Him) is a decent enough dog and co-host for this variety. He likes roaming off the leash\, eating delicious food off of tables\, and watching squirrels cautiously from a second-story window. \nRegarding The Glitterbox – \nThis space is built on community and DIY\, two values which are also held closely by the furry community at large. Given this\, Gbox is and has been one of the local venues most primed to welcome furries. This space is fun to be in\, perform in\, and this performance will be a demonstration of this. \nA link to the website for accessibility information: https://www.theglitterboxtheater.com/ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRent the Space\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe theater is available for rent for shows\, performances or rehearsals.

This programs is specifically designed to reduce the cost of access to theater resources\, rehearsal space and other things that make performance hard to do. As a WAP participant you pay a monthly due\, but get priority calendar access\, free space usage\, and keep all the proceeds for the art you make. The WAP program is about flipping the non-profit artist funding model\, leaning into community as the center of supporting performers\, and collectively holding and using the resources to make work. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVolunteer or Perform with the GBX!\n\n\n\n\nDear fellow lover of theatre and performance!\nAre you and actor\, director\, tech person or simply have an interest in getting involved and supporting local DIY art making?

SUMMARY:Mon Valley Initiative Partner Network & SPARC Mobile Resource Fair in Homestead | July 24
DESCRIPTION:Mon Valley Initiative Partner Network & SPARC Mobile Resource Fair in Homestead | July 24 \nLooking for employment opportunities\, financial guidance\, or community resources? Don’t miss the Mobile Resource Fair hosted by MVI’s Partner Network on Friday\, July 24\, in Homestead. \nConnect with local organizations\, discover valuable resources\, and explore opportunities to help you and your family succeed at the MVI Partner Network & SPARC Mobile Resource Fair. \nHosted by Mon Valley Initiative (MVI)\, this free community event brings together providers from across the region offering employment services\, financial education\, behavioral health resources\, family support\, re-entry services\, banking assistance\, and much more. Whether you’re looking for a new career\, community resources\, or support services\, this event is designed to connect you with organizations that can help. \nDate: Friday\, July 24\, 2026Time: 12:00 PM – 6:00 PMLocation: East 7th Avenue (between Ann Street and McClure Street)\, behind Mon Valley Initiative’s Homestead office \nCommunity organizations and service providers will be available throughout the afternoon to answer questions\, provide information\, and connect attendees with programs and resources. The event also highlights the work of Mon Valley Initiative’s Southwestern Pennsylvania Re-Entry Coalition (SPARC)\, which supports successful re-entry and community connections throughout the region. \nFor additional information\, contact Mon Valley Initiative’s Workforce Team at 412-464-4000 \nserving the region since 1988\nThe Mon Valley communities — located south of Pittsburgh along the Monongahela and Youghiogheny rivers in Allegheny\, Washington\, and Westmoreland counties — were deeply damaged more than 30 years ago when the driving forces of the region’s industrial economy moved away or closed. \nMon Valley Initiative\, founded in 1988\, works to improve the lives of people in the Mon Valley area by helping to rebuild community infrastructure\, provide safe and affordable housing\, and connect employers to people seeking new jobs and careers. \nWe do this by delivering quality services to the people of the Mon Valley\, including housing counseling\, workforce development and financial coaching\, real estate development\, and community development. \nOUR HISTORY\nIn the late 1970s and early 1980s\, U.S. Steel\, Westinghouse Electric\, WABCO\, Union Switch and Signal\, and Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel all closed major manufacturing plants in the Monongahela Valley. Some sources indicate that as many as 175\,000 jobs were lost in the region when these plants closed. \nMajor industrial sites occupied hundreds of acres of land and as landowners\, the corporations were major taxpayers. Without this tax revenue\, communities in the Mon Valley were hard-pressed to provide basic services to their residents. People moved out\, and the Valley’s role as the engine of the Pittsburgh region’s economy was lost. \nAs factories were closing\, a number of business and industry leaders representing Pittsburgh’s largest corporations began an aggressive plan to address the problems that arose from the fall of heavy manufacturing. \nThrough the Allegheny Conference on Community Development\, the group focused its work on setting strategic investment strategies for the region to address the devastating economic decline. One of their recommendations included hiring a community organizer to find a way to encourage reinvestment in the Mon Valley. \nThat organizer\, Michael Eichler\, and key leaders and funders of the Allegheny Conference sought solutions directly from people who lived and worked in the Valley. They recommended strategies that offered a means to broadly engage local people in implementing economic and community development projects. \nIn addition to helping to form new grassroots organizations\, Eichler also provided support to community development corporations\, or CDCs\, that were already in existence. Through the Allegheny Conference\, the “Mon Valley Development Team” was formed in January 1987. \nIn April 1988\, the representatives of these grassroots CDCs began to discuss the possibility of forming a regional coalition. These discussions led to the incorporation of Mon Valley Initiative in December 1988.
