This place is not worth the money. I paid for a membership for nothing. As soon as we bought a…read morehouse in Upper St. Clair, we are opened a membership for us, but we never had time to come because of our busy schedule. Our grandmother came to visit us from our home country, and she has difficulty digesting food. My mother-in-law wanted to take her for a walk, but it was very cold outside after a snowstorm. I simply wanted to bring her here so she could walk a little on the second floor. They were extremely rude when I explained that she had only been here for three days and that as soon as we received an email or documents, we would open the membership in her name. I said that later we would do the membership properly. They rudely demanded $50 just for entry. I explained that it was dark and cold outside and asked them to please let her walk a little just for today, but they were arrogant and rude right to my face. I would have understood if this had been explained respectfully and politely, but instead they behaved very rudely. This is a place that has been taking money out of my pocket for a year for nothing. That is why I canceled. I hope you understand that they do not care about your physical or mental health -- they only care about money.

A nice place to hold events like todays for the dragon dance for Lunar New Year on 2-16-25…read more Parking is free but very hard to find when there's a big event bc it's just one lot on the ground street floor so it's best you find street parking a walk a bit which is not terrible and good exercise. It's nestled in a residential neighborhood. I love it that this center promotes culture and diversity and learning about each other ... and so many non Chinese Americans also attended this event. The Levinson room was packed w people outside the room. Thank you. I don't have any other experience w this center other than this event so I can't speak for everything else.

I got the premium membership…read more I have UPMC health insurance and can get an Active and Fit subscription with them to lower the cost of many gyms. I'll share because there is no place I could find out in advance of their pricing system. A premium membership allows use of their premium locker room, with a steam room, a sauna, and a whirlpool. It also includes all the classes, and the recovery room that holds various message implements. A very cool feature. A standard membership gives a basic locker room, and each class is paid for individually. Both memberships have access to weight and cardio rooms, indoor basketball court that turns into a pickleball court, and indoor pools. I believe that's how it goes. They run a Black Friday deal that removes the $149 enrollment fee. Along with 20% off for the first year. The standard individual membership is $67 per month. The premium individual membership is an additional $43 per month. The UPMC Active and Fit subscription is $28 per month. This gives a free standard membership at the JCC. The thing is, once you have the Active and Fit subscription, they increase the premium membership from $43 to $61 per month. So all in instead of pay the $96 per month (which includes the 20% off), for the premium individual membership, I pay $89 monthly. So the Active and Fit saves $7 per month. Not a lot. But, over a year, that is $84, so almost the cost of one month. Ok. It took all afternoon to sign up for the Active and Fit through UPMC. This type of pricing at the JCC felt like I was buying a used car that was about to become a lemon. It felt slimy and like I was signing up to get taken advantage of. Like a dreadful regret would soon be my companion. In addition, parking is $1.50 per hour, or there is some street parking that may be free. So that can add to the cost of a membership quickly. Which is unfortunate because the overall facility seems good. There are almost no windows that that look outside. The cardio, weights, exercise, recovery, and locker rooms have no windows. So it kind of feels like a series of basement rooms. That is not good. I imagine it is because it is an older building. Each room felt like it had weathered its share of hard use. The premium women's locker room entrance room is stocked with Starbucks coffee and a filtered water dispenser. This first room in the premium locker room is bland and needs to be improved. I appreciate the filtered water because I drink tons when I use the steam, sauna, and whirlpool. I was able to refill my bottle throughout my stay. There is no premium feel about this entrance room however. There are two tables, some nice magazines, and a kitchenette. Again, no windows, no plants, no comfy chairs, no luxe at all. No mirrors to shine light around to make it seem brighter than a basement. It is underwhelming. I heard the men's premium locker room has a pool table. It seemed messy and a bit dirty. There was a different woman on the floor each time I entered. I think they were stretching? Maybe they didn't want to stretch in a coed setting? It seemed unappealing to sit in there and read a magazine. Although, I did want to as they had an issue of The Sun, my favorite magazine. There are No Talking on Cell Phone signs all around the locker room and each time I went into this first room of the locker room, (6 times), women were talking on their cell phones. So, like most environments there are people that can claim the exception. I know I'm not one. I am a new member and was definitely made to feel like one. I said hi to every woman I crossed in the locker room. Only one said hi back. I must have walked past 25-30 women. It's Pittsburgh. And so it goes. The most highly insular place I've ever been to. I do actively look forward to getting in my time in that steam, sauna, whirlpool room, above all, this winter. Until I get my own steam, sauna and whirlpool at my home, I'll be there surviving this cold. Being that it is tied to a religious society though, I did expect it to be more welcoming.

I haven't seen any issues with the amount of clay that is available, and my teacher has been more than willing to mix up what I need. Edit 4/22/2014 I went to open studio this weekend. The monitor was super helpful, but there was no space to do anything and my stuff was moved multiple times by co-op members... I understand that there is a show next weekend, but maybe open studio time should be geared more toward accommodating the people that are paying to be there and less on the co-op members pushing you out of the way to get their stuff done on time... I hate to say this, 1. because I know I will go back there and I really do not mean to offend anyone... I am just giving my opinion and 2. because all of the classes I have taken there have been amazing. However, I keep having not great experiences at open studio. That being said, I have had some open studio's that were great... but not nearly as many as were bad.

Anyways, the visit was filled with visual wonders for the mind and soul. Each piece was truly unique and remarkable in so many ways. Most disciplines of art were represented with shining examples of each. The current exhibition features several highly skilled local Pittsburgh artists. The gallery features art, but also sometimes hosts music shows, which I was happy to be a part of in the past. You will get a plethora of information from the owner if you inquire about the works, artists, or anything and everything.
