# Event Details - **Event Name**: CAM After Dark: Gallery Talk with Niki Hildebrand - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 14 May, 2026 at 06:30 pm (-04:00) - **Event Description**: CAM After Dark: Gallery Talk with Niki Hildebrand Thursday, May 14 6:30-7:30 PM Free with museum admission Join us for a special lecture on the illuminating exhibition of Magic, Light and Sacred Geometry: Glassworks by Frederick G. Kahl. Magic, Light and Sacred Geometry: Glassworks by Frederick G. Kahl is the culmination of the artist’s decade-long inquiry into the immersive and meditative quality of light. Featuring glass works and drawings, the exhibition reflects a career shaped by magic, play, and a sense of mystery. Also known as “the Great Fredini,” Kahl’s practice has spanned visual and stage illusions, yogic sideshow feats of sword swallowing, and 3D scanned and printed portrait sculptures. In this lecture, Joe Grant explores how Kahl’s current focus on sacred geometries comes together to create meditative, immersive experiences — and what that means for the works on view.
