FAIRHOPE, Ala. — Join the Eastern Shore Art Center in the Crescent City on March 25, from 7:30 a.m. until late afternoon.

ESAC is taking a day trip to New Orleans for a tour and demonstration at the New Orleans School of GlassWorks, followed by lunch at the famous bistro-trattoria Herbsaint with renowned chefs Donald Link and Bayona’s Susan Spicer.

New Orleans ArtWorks at the New Orleans GlassWorks and Printmaking Studio houses the South's largest working artist and craftsman studio arena.

During our GlassWorks tour, each audience member will experience the origins and historical background of glass torch working.

Group members may participate in an exciting hands-on activity by learning how to make their own unique torch-worked glass sculpture.

After the tour and demo, the group will dine at one of Gourmet magazine's top 50 restaurants, Herbsaint.

According to the magazine “Herbsaint is where New Orleans, after three centuries of braising in European influences, finally puts its definitive stamp on the bistro-trattoria.”

The price includes transportation, New Orleans GlassWorks tour and demo and lunch at Herbsaint.

ESAC invites everyone to join them in the Crescent City.

The cost is $75 for ESAC supporting level members and above, and $100 per person for all others.
