Item Description

Two VIP Tickets to Urbanites' Casino Night Fundraiser, on Friday, November 12, 2010, 8pm-Midnight. 

UrbanGlass is proud to present the First Annual Glass Casino Night, a fundraiser to benefit the studio and programs of UrbanGlass. The event will take place at Steuben's prestigious New York City Flagship Store on Madison Avenue on Friday, November 12, 2010. Glass Casino Night is hosted by the Urbanites, a dynamic group of young professionals that promote education, commu­nity and support for the exploration and appreciation of glass as a medium of artistic expression through special events and educational experiences.

Glass Casino Night will attract a crowd of young and hip art enthusiasts. From 8pm to midnight, guests will play exciting games of chance for charity. The night will reflect the UrbanGlass motto “it’s cool to be hot” with a Fire and Ice theme. We will heat things up with smoking hot entertainment, featuring Ivan Mora’s “Queen of Hearts” glass fashion and cool it down with cocktails provided by Tequila Avión. Incredible glass prizes will be awarded to the top lucky winners of the night. For more information about the event, click here.

VIP ticket holders will get a pre-party private tour of the world-renowned Steuben gallery and show room and will receive a special gift bag. VIP tickets also entitle holders to casino entry, $500 in starter chips and unlimited cocktails.
