.. Past IMI Partners include: The Brew House Association, the Garfield Artworks, Braddock, The Steel Valley Arts Council and host the Owl's Club, The Union Project..
Q: What can I do at the I Made It! Market?
A: Sell your handmade goodies, stitch and/or bitch, eat yummy local fare, meet those people you've been dying to talk to at the Brillo Box, in line at the caf, at Pamela's after a long night out, or even that cutie you saw at Coffee Tree Roasters and the dog park, start partnerships and make art.
Q: What is the I Made It! Market?
(the short answer): An open, welcoming gathering place for creative individuals to meet, create, sell or trade their wares and to make new connections. I Made It is looking for artists, crafters, or anyone passionate about making a positive impact in the community we share.
(the LONG answer): I Made It! is a regularly occurring, nomadic Market that provides the opportunity for entrepreneurs to establish their businesses and to enjoy low barriers for bringing their wares to market in order to create successful businesses built on arts and crafts.
The Market is an inclusive happening that welcomes artists or other "makers" in the Pittsburgh region to meet like-minded individuals, to create new opportunities, or to find a receptive environment in which to sell new art.
Q: What did the first five I Made It! Markets look like?
What people have been whispering about is TRUE! Strange sightings… Unexplained phenomena. . . scientific anomalies… Squonk Opera will be responding to the cover-ups with… ASTRO - RAMA!
With 3 stories of scaffolding and a 40 ft radio telescope, Squonk Opera will take you on a wild visual and musical celebration of the universe and our place in it.
Part symphony, part cacophony, Astro-Rama dares to go where no multi-media/theater/performance group has gone before.
Rising in scissor lift platforms and cherry pickers, Squonk will compose a proud message from our species, power up and transmit.
Stand with us, and the truth will be revealed.
