Raising approximately $10,000 less than in 2009, the organizers of the 9th annual Great Glass Auction to support the Bay Area Glass Institute are calling it a success with $110,000 in total monies generated by the event. About 110 people attended the auction on February 6th, 2010, in San Jose, California, to raise money for this public-access glass center. The amount raised constitutes one-fourth of the entire annual operating budget of BAGI.
