The Associated Artists of Pittsburgh is celebrating their 100th Anniversary. As part of the yearlong series of more than 70 exhibitions and events in galleries and museums throughout the Pittsburgh region, Sirani Gallery presents the exhibit “Shades of Green,” from June 18 to July 12. A reception to meet the artists will be held Friday, June 18, from 5 to 8 p.m. Inspired by nature, these artists communicate “green” by experimenting with eco-friendly and recycled materials.
