GIFTY The Crucible's Winter Open House

Discover the Science in the Industrial Art with our live demonstrations in glass blowing, foundry pours, enameling, blacksmithing, neon and more! 

Dozens of leading artists, craftspeople, and Crucible faculty members will be selling their best hand-made pieces in a holiday celebration of local creative culture. With works of glass, metal, wood, ceramics, and more, you will find the perfect gifts for all the people on your list. Seasonal treats, beverages, and entertainment make this an event all ages will enjoy. 

Our themed Open House events are a great way to learn more about our 56,000 square foot studio and seasonal class offerings. Parents of small children will need to pay special attention, as this space does have rough edges. We are located two blocks from West Oakland BART Station.
