Patron Night

 
Patron Night

Patrons of the Arts, friends, community, we welcome you to an evening of good food, good friends, and great glass! Please join us on Saturday, November 9th from 5:00 to 9:00 pm for dinner in the Empire Firehouse here in History Park. After dinner, BAGI's Executive Director, Sarah Corneille, will provide a short update about this year's successes and the plans for BAGI's future, followed by a brief Artist Talk from Nathan Sambar of Monterey GlassWorks.

Once we finish hearing about his work, Nathan will demonstrate in the BAGI Hotshop. His glasswork is strongly inspired by classic venetian techniques but mixed with his love of innovation modern 3d technology, and his demonstration is not to be missed. Come support glass art education in the Bay Area!

The Empire Firehouse is one of the historic structures located, along with BAGI, in San Jose's History Park. The BAGI parking area is still the best place to park for this event, the code for the gate will be in your confirmation email when you request your tickets.
