Bay Area Glass Institute (BAGI)

The Bay Area Glass Institute is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting and educating glass artists, students and the community. We teach thousands of beginners through advanced students in hands-on classes and rent time to local artists. The organization runs programs to connect the public with the art of glass including the Great Glass Pumpkin Patch®, where thousands of hand-crafted glass pumpkins are displayed and sold, and our Visiting Artists Program, where nationally and internationally acclaimed glass artists like Ethan Stern come to BAGI to teach classes and interact with the public.
