Regardless of what part of Pittsburgh you are in, you will be able to check out one of the fabulous La Fond Galleries in Pittsburgh, PA as there are two of them in the city. One is located at 1711 E. Carson Street and the other one is located at 1713 Wrights Way. La Fond Galleries have everything you could possibly want in the line of art work or art supplies. Whether you are looking for an artist's work or attempting to produce work of your own, La Fond Galleries can be of service to you. They offer many types of supplies such as pencils, lead pencils, crayons, paints and many other artist's materials and goods.
The business is owned by Adelaide La Fond, who also is a renowned artist. Her ideas for her colorful and cheerful art work come from her desire to put her feelings and passions about life on paper. She does her painting in one of her loft studios in Pittsburgh as well as when she travels all over the world on art missions. Adelaide has many pastels and paintings. Not only are they on display in her gallery, but also in Europe, Asia and North and South America. Some of her famous works are '10th Street Bridge', 'Holiday Lights' and 'Birmingham Bridge' to name a few of her many.
Adelaide La Fond and her gallery recently helped sponsor an art show for victims of rape and sexual abuse. She was instrumental in helping the function run smoothly as well as raise much needed funds for the cause.
