Patron Night
Out of stock
Saturday, November 9th from 5:00 to 9:00 pm, join us 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!

How to choose: Glass Experience, or Studio Class?
-
If you’ve never interacted with art glass before and just want a casual introduction to the medium, you’ll want to book a Glass Experience. These are half-day sessions that are a lot of fun, whether solo or with a group.
These make for great team-building events, and we also have seasonal experiences where you can make pieces that are season or holiday-specific.
If you have a Groupon for BAGI, then the Glass Experience is for you—book here.
-
If you’re ready to dig deep and start on the right path to becoming a proficient glass artist, you’ll want to book a Studio Class.
