News from the Pajama Factory
From our most recent newsletter
June 2010
Friends,
Exciting news kicks off summer at the Pajama Factory!
For starters, we now have over 50 tenants working here – the largest number yet – and we seem to grow more and more each day. Our second year of the Artist-in-Residence program is welcoming 13 artists from all over the country for the months of June and July. And thousands of visitors have streamed through our doors – attending events, exhibits, First Fridays or just strolling the halls to visit artist studios. All are discovering our hidden gem here in Williamsport.
A gorgeous wedding took place earlier this month in the Pajama Factory courtyard (congratulations to the happy couple!). While it was the second wedding here, this time the reception was held in the newly renovated Public Art Academy space adjacent to the courtyard. This fabulous space is available to rent for special events so spread the word. Also keep in mind that we have a theater/sound stage available to rent as well (for special occasions) – at least until it is rented out to a more permanent tenant.
Come by this summer and see for yourself all that is happening and don't miss the Artists-in-Residence show on July 30th.
Hope to see you then.
– Mark and Suzanne Winkelman
