Event Sponsorships

Pittsburgh Glass Center hosts the hottest events in Pittsburgh from monthly open house Hot Jams to the region’s only glass auction. As a sponsor your company will receive publicity and increased awareness with the Pittsburgh’s glass art appreciators!

Become an Art on Fire Sponsor

Pittsburgh Glass Center events have become known as the hottest in town. This year is no exception! American Eagle Outfitters is joining us again to Loosen Up on October 10 at the second annual Art on Fire Celebration & Auction, a spin off our signature Meltdown event and Pittsburgh’s only glass art auction.

Please follow the example of our main sponsor American Eagle Outfitters and its President Susan P. McGalla. Become a sponsor of Art on Fire 08 and support Pittsburgh Glass Center, a vital arts organization in the region that is bringing new life to Pittsburgh’s glass art legacy and maintaining the momentum brought to the region last summer by Dale Chihuly and Pittsburgh Celebrates Glass 2007. Help Pittsburgh’s only public access glass studio and school to carry on that tradition and continue the excitement and success by becoming a sponsor.

Last year, over 200 community leaders and art appreciators joined the celebration along with our sponsors American Eagle Outfitters, Guckenheimer, Pittsburgh Celebrates Glass 2007!, The Bank of New York Mellon, Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, Consumers Produce, Giant Eagle and T.D. Patrinos Painting and Contracting Company among others to make it our best year yet! We know 2008 will be even better with your support.

Susan Taylor Glasgow, honorary chair and artist extraordinaire, will be at the event to demonstrate how to Loosen Up with her donation to the live auction - a handmade glass corset.

We hope corporations loosen their belts, community leaders loosen their ties, bidders loosen their wallets and everyone opens their hearts as we enjoy a fabulous evening of beautiful art and delicious food and drink by the river.

Loosen Up! Join us this year as an event sponsor.

Respond by July 10, 2008 and be recognized as a sponsor in the formal invitation, press materials and on our event website.
