Friends, we are so excited to announce that the fourth annual Art Beyond the Glass raised $20,156 on behalf of KCRW! Massive thanks to L.A.’s incomparable bartenders, our sponsoring brands, and everyone who attended, volunteered and performed at ABTG IV. Special thanks to our amazing hosts, Christopher Day, Jay Lee and the General Lee's Cocktail House crew; and George Yu and everyone at the Chinatown BID.

Art Beyond the Glass IV was our largest event to date and once again our fundraising total surpassed the previous year. Our donation this year is going towards the KCRW Capital Campaign to open a new, state-of-the-art facility in Santa Monica. The donation check presentation took place at the Courvoisier Toast For the Town, hosted by ABTG co-founder and Courvoisier National Brand Ambassador, Zahra Bates. The donation was presented to KCRW’s Development Director, Jill Smayo by Zahra, ABTG co-founder Daniel Djang and Tricia Carr, Treasurer for USBG Southern California Chapter.
