The Bay Area Glass Institute (BAGI) is an educational resource for our local community, providing high-quality hands-on experiences in a variety of glass art techniques. BAGI offers instruction, events, and rentals in furnace glass, flameworking, fusing, casting, and cold working. Through its Scholarship Fund, Summer Camp, and Visiting Artist Series, BAGI provides people access to glass art education. To generate the funds they need to operate and re-invest in programs, BAGI earns revenue through classes and events, grants from the City of San Jose and other arts and science organizations, and generous contributions from annual patrons.
