Check back often. We are adding new sails daily. We have hundreds of crates of sails and we process more every week.
Support the Lyric Opera
Posted by Phillip Pollard on
We just installed the latest banners for the Lyric Opera. These banners are designed and printed then sent to Sailbrite for trimming, sewing, and installation. Each banner utilizes sail luff tape sewn to both sides of the banner. They are hoisted in custom headsail tracks that are attached to decorative metal architectural elements on the front of the Civic Opera Building. This design allows the banners to withstand gale force winds and still look great.
