Songbird Artistry; Pittsburgh Gift Shop and Event Space
One of kind handmade jewelry, screen printed apparel, fandom goodies, vintage & more.
Shop online or visit us 4316 Penn Ave in Lawrenceville.
Songbird Artistry was started by Debbie Jacknin and her daughters, Jennifer and Jacklyn. Each of them specializes in their own craft and have long been selling their jewelry, mosaics, screen printed apparel and vintage finds at craft shows going back to when Jennifer was only 13. Their first physical location was a booth at the Pittsburgh Public Market in the Strip, where the three of them sold their own goods. It was there that they began to develop relationships with the other local artists and craftsmen who rented stands there as well. With such a supportive community, it was an ideal location and business, on the rise. Soon after they found their current location on Penn Ave across from the children’s hospital where they have been selling an expanded inventory of locally crafted Jewelry, prints, apparel, beauty supplies, and vintage goods ever since, where they also carry the items of over 20 other Pittsburgh artisans.
