July's Coffee Nook
2026-07-08 10:00 - 12:30 (America/New_York) | Carnegie Coffee Company, 132 E. Main St., Carnegie, 15106, United States
The Coffee Company
What a wonderful idea! The thought of sharing coffee in an old-time post office on Main Street in Carnegie is truly charming. The Carnegie Coffee Company, nestled in a beautifully renovated historic post office, offers just the atmosphere you describe—full of character, with cozy seating and a delightful blend of old and new. The oak woodwork and unique architectural details, like the post office telephone booth in the corner, create a space where history and warmth meet.
The beveled glass casting light throughout the rooms adds to the inviting ambiance, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy good company. Whether you’re savoring a pastry or simply soaking in the nostalgic surroundings, it’s easy to feel at home here
We had a great turn out in January, let’s do it again.
Time: 10:00AM- 12:30PM
Parking is across the street.

Vanka Murals Tour - St. Nicholas Croatian Church
2026-07-11 11:00 - 16:30 | St Nicholas Croation Catholic Church, 24 Maryland Ave, Millvale, 15209, United States
If These Walls Could Talk
We will tour the St Nicholas Croatian Catholic Church in Millvale.
It’s not just the story of one man’s journey to America; it’s the story of all of us. Maxo Vanka’s 25 powerful murals are one of Pittsburgh’s hidden gems. Painted in two intense periods – 1937 and 1941— in a church high above Millvale, the murals’ timeless tales leave viewers awestruck.

Then we will travel to Troy Hill to tour St Anthony’s Chapel,

Saint Anthony’s Chapel, or the Shrine of St. Anthony of Padua as it’s officially known, was originally built in 1880 by Friar Suitbert Mollinger, who was the pastor of the Most Holy Name of Jesus Church, which still sits nearby. Fr. Mollinger was born in Belgium and came to America as a missionary in 1854. He settled into the Troy Hill neighborhood of Pittsburgh in 1868.
