Providing a time and a space for people in the marketplace to gather, grow, and be heard in western Pennsylvania.
The Pittsburgh Experiment (PX) serves the people and corporations of Western Pennsylvania by starting small groups that provide a time and space where people can enjoy a bit of respite during their busy work week, find a listening ear, and develop positive relationships with others in the work force. We currently have groups meeting across the region with bankers, lawyers, techies, business owners, and others involved. We also engage young professionals who want to be mentored and retired people looking to give back.
Learning to Turn Off Before Life Does It for You
In a world that runs on constant connection, the ability to “turn off” has quietly become one of the most important disciplines we can practice. A life that learns to turn off — even briefly — becomes more grounded, more present, and more human.
A Night at PNC
On Wednesday, April 29, members of the Pittsburgh Experiment board gathered on a rainy evening at PNC Park to watch the Pirates take on St. Louis. And while the final score didn’t go our way, the night was a win in all the ways that matter: great conversation, laughter, and time spent together. This is what the Pittsburgh Experiment is about: real community, lived out in simple, meaningful ways.
The peale foundation
You may notice in many of our posts that we reference Dr. Norman Vincent Peale and his writings. PX has a rich history with Dr. Peale. Paul Everett ('69-'95), PX longest serving Executive Director, was married to Dr. Peale's daughter Maggie. Maggie is still a dear friend to us, and the Peale Foundation has been a generous and long-time supporter, for which we are very grateful. You can hear many of Dr. Peale's sermons on their recently updated app here and learn more about his books and writings by clicking on their website at here.
