What To Expect

Corning Museum of Glass

Showcasing more than 3,500 years of glassmaking history, the Corning Museum of Glass features nearly 50,000 pieces of classic and contemporary glass art and objects. See works ranging from a small Egyptian pharaoh head to an enormous Tiffany window, and discover the wonder and artistry behind glassmaking. Explore the stunning day-lit Contemporary Art + Design Wing, which houses the best of the last 25 years in glass, and a 500-seat Amphitheater Hot Shop, a space dedicated to live glass demos and design sessions. See glass created before your eyes during a live, narrated Hot Glass Demo, and be inspired to experience glassmaking for yourself during a Make Your Own Glass workshop, with projects for all ages. Choose from fused picture frames and suncatchers, sandblasted drinking glasses, flameworked beads, pulled-glass flowers, delicate blown ornaments, and seasonal projects (additional fee).

Once again we were impressed with this place. We spent some time in the company store picking up some gifts for relatives and friends. Prices are outlet priced. It was raining so being inside was appropriate.

While the city of Corning is not interesting to visit, the museum was a very pleasant surprise and very affordable! This museum was not on our original itinerary as we were traveling between the Finger Lakes and Pittsburgh, but my whole family was happy we stopped. The museum is a terrific blend of science, art, history, and technology. Excellent live demonstrations of glass blowing and glass properties. Plan to spend at least 2.5 to 4 hours to get a good overview. The cafeteria is also very good and reasonably priced.

It sounds like the Museum surpassed your expectations and that you enjoyed some of the live demonstrations that come free with admission. Thanks for visiting and for leaving a review, think of us on your next trip through Upstate NY!

If all you know about glass is that it lets light in and keeps cold out, this is the place for you. We had not visited it for perhaps 30 years, and were amazed at the scope and extent of the museum. Something for every age and virtually every interest. Don't miss it.
