The Pittsburgh Lace Group is a not-for-profit organization whose purpose is to foster and promote interest in lace and lacemaking by providing a means for members to meet and exchange ideas and information, by offering demonstrations of lacemaking and exhibits of lace to the general public, and by providing programs and workshops on all aspects of lace, lacemaking, and related topics of interest to the members. The group meets the first Thursday of each month. Some meetings are for sharing news and ideas, while others include a demonstration or mini-workshop. There is an annual Lace Day and at least one weekend workshop. Informal classes are held on Thursday evenings in Monroeville, PA.
