Board

The Glassroots Board of Trustees has overseen the development of GlassRoots from a concept to provide glass and business skills training to Newark area youth to a strong body leading the expansion of the organization from a single room at the Boys and Girls Club to an almost million dollar hotshop and studio providing both the broad glassmaking as well as entrepreneurial training. The board has built a growing group of funders including government, many local businesses, foundations and private individuals who support the group.
