THRIVAL FESTIVAL 2018 Visit the Depreciation Lands Museum on Sunday, July 15, from 1 to 4 p.m. for an Old Fashioned Ice Cream Social that will celebrate the museum’s 45 years of success. Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of an old-fashioned country ice cream social. Traditionally, the social was an opportunity to relax the social code and visit with friends and neighbors. Ice cream and lemonade are complimentary with your paid admission to the museum on July 15. Take a trip back to colonial times and enjoy a day of treats, special demonstrations and lots of hands-on activities! Take time to visit the “Fleece to Shawl” demonstration, presented in collaboration with the Butler Spinners and Weavers Guild. A recently shorn sheep fleece will be spun into yarn, and woven into a lovely shawl, all in the space of the afternoon! Purchase a raffle ticket for the handmade shawl. The lucky winner will be chosen at the Hydref Fall Festival in October. At 2:30 p.m., enjoy a family-friendly concert presented by the Pittsburgh Historical Music Society.

This unique conference experience leverages the city’s strengths in automated systems, advanced manufacturing, robotics and life sciences.
