Greetings from Myfanwy! 
I’m planning on going — but I also have to take the car in for a “Not a recall” thing and don’t know how long that is going to take….  So I may be a little late since I will be coming from Cranberry.  :-(

On Friday July 12 at 7 pm we're going to meet at the Frick museum in Pittsburgh (not the NYC one) to look at and geek about their four early sixteenth century French and Flemish tapestries, and then look at some medieval paintings and artifacts in their collection.

On the plus side, there will be food trucks and a free concert (please see their webpage for more info. https://www.thefrickpittsburgh.org/calendar <https://www.thefrickpittsburgh.org/calendar>)
