The Life of STEVE X. GALLAS
As a talented musician, he played his violin with the Reading Pops Orchestra and the Reading Philarmonic, and had a tradition of riding his horse at the head of the Armed Forces Day parade in Reading.
A June 15, 1970 Reading Eagle article announcing the first Berks Arts Festival prominently advertises Gallas opening sculpture demonstration, where he would be working on an unfinished life-sized statue of Madonna, made of Indiana limestone. There, he also exhibited the plaster model of Christ from which a stone sculpture was created for the New Greek Orthodox Church, and a bas relief plaster model of the profile of Christ. His life-size image of Christ at Gethsemane still marks the final resting place for his relatives in Gethsemane Cemetery.
