Joshua Goltz, Ova Shofa, Charles Gregory, and Michael Szakach established the Inner Child House Collective in November 1999, also known as Inner Child Productions & Artist Management. Quickly evolving, Inner Child completed its premiere event, Phunkadelik, on April 8, 2000. After this success, Inner Child continued producing events and hosted some of the most coveted and memorable events in the Pittsburgh region to date (iPhunk, Phunktified, et al.). Inner Child has also hosted some of Pittsburgh's legendary weekly events and at city hotspots, such as Zythos, Club Café, dejAVu lounge, Eno, Casablanca Bistro, and the Carnegie Museum of Art and Natural History. Inner Child's main focus is to showcase house music, and in 2002, appended the "house collective" trailer to its name to emphasize this goal. In 2003, Inner Child began a charitable benefit initiative kicking off with a Halloween event, Fright House, which benefited the Make-A-Wish foundation. Since then, the initiative has proven successful and has benefited organizations such as the Red Cross, United Way, American Jewish World Service, AmeriCares, The American Cancer Society, and World Vision. In early 2005, Inner Child took on management of entertainment for z:lounge (formerly Zythos), a popular lounge in Pittsburgh's historic South Side and has maintained revolving weekly events here ever since. In addition to being a forward and intuitive production powerhouse, Inner Child is also a full service artist management. Hosting Pittsburgh's largest electronic dance music artist roster, Inner Child is also home to DJs, producers, and live performance musicians in Ohio, New York, and California, and in 2008 expanded by adding a local management presence in San Francisco. Today's remaining founders, Joshua Goltz and Ova Shofa, accompanied by new partner, Brad Rehak, continue to strive for perfection while catering to a unique avant-garde audience.
