More than 60 renowned glass artists will be on display creating works of art on site to be auctioned off to benefit Art Road, a nonprofit. In addition to live painters, blowers, art vendors, food, and drinks, the event boasts over 40 musical artists across two stages during the three-day event, including headliner Kool Keith, DJ Dez, and D-Cyphered Live.
