We are thrilled to announce our signature annual event, the ARCS Pittsburgh Scholar Showcase, to be held on Friday, May 9th from 5:30 to 8:30 pm at the Frick Environmental Center. This celebration provides an opportunity to interact with all our 3rd year scholars while they explain their research.  The Jeanne Berdik Scholar Achievement Awards will also be presented.

Enjoy refreshments and heavy hors d’oeuvres as you mingle with scholars and other members. 

We are inviting you to join our Host Committee! All net proceeds from this event will go to our scholar fund. The ranges of support follow:

$125 Dean's List (includes one ticket)

$250 Cum Laude (includes two tickets)

$500 Magna Cum Laude (includes four tickets)

$1000 Summa Cum Laude (Includes six tickets)

The names of Host Committee donors who complete their donations by Friday, March 13th will be acknowledged in the invitation and displayed at the event, with special recognition to our Summa Cum Laude supporters.

We hosted the event at the Frick Environmental Center last year and it was such a wonderful success, we have chosen to host it there again.   If you haven’t had a chance to visit the Frick Environmental Center, this is truly a great opportunity.  A project of the Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy and the City of Pittsburgh, the Frick Environmental Center is a certified Living Building that has achieved Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Platinum.

Thank you so much for supporting ARCS!  Your financial support is even more critical in these uncertain times of university research funding.

Sincerely,
