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). You can also search the gift shops for handmade glass treasures or grab a bite at the museum cafe. Spend as much time as you'd like at the museum touring at your own pace, and return the next day if you didn't get enough!

I loved everything about it! The displays, the art installations of the modern pieces, and the terrific array of vintage glassware-35 Centuries of it! Cafeteria had a nice selection, Gluten Free options, everything was terrific. Was there years ago-loved it then-but even better now!

WOW! What is glass? A place to store and cook things. Ain't it? Well think again. You can create your own glass here, kids below 10 can sand blow on glass and then there are these workshops. There are these exhibits and history, the old and the new and so much more. My wife and I loved the place and when my kids grow up

Thanks for leaving such a fun review! It's great to hear that you and your wife enjoyed your experience here. Kids of all ages have several Make Your Own Glass project opportunities, including ornaments and sculptures, if they are able to follow directions and can blow up a balloon. Plus, Kids 17 and Under always receive free admission to the Museum. Thanks for visiting, we hope to see you again!

There is just too much to see and do here in the museum. Unless you plan on spending two days here you can't see it all, attend the many demos, and create your own glasswork. A really great museum packed to the max with excellent works of art. Five hours was simply not enough time and we are not glass fanatics!

Thanks for visiting and for leaving a review! We agree that taking advantage of the two days of admission is the way to go if you'd like to see everything. If you have less time, we recommend taking one of our guided tours (free with admission) that will give you a snapshot of the galleries within an hour. We hope to see you again soon!
