2026 Wall of Fame Celebration
Thursday, October 1, 2026, 5:30PM - 9:30PM
Wintergarden at PPG Place
Join us for the Wall of Fame Celebration - a gala like no other for 250 guests and our honorees in the stunning Wintergarden. Be in the room where history is made: meet this year's Wall of Fame honorees and our partner awardees. Make meaningful connections, experience the exuberance, and celebrate the people who make our community great. It's an evening to remember!
Previous attendees shared that they left the evening feeling “joyous,” “energized,” and “hopeful.” They made new friends, “our whole table was awesome” and enjoyed the “incredible fashion” and “inspirational presentation...I’ve never heard a room that full so quiet.”
Your Wall of Fame ticket, donation, or sponsorship, at any level, supports the Trade Institute of Pittsburgh’s education programs, job development initiatives, alumni network, and community engagement efforts. Thank you!
The 2025 Wall of Fame was an evening to remember!

People come to us to stabilize their lives, gain career and life skills, and transform their future. We believe that if our students thrive, so will our communities.

Students learn core masonry and carpentry skills and work with our job developers to graduate with a career in the trades or related fields.
