Had a wonderful time at the museum. It’s a lovely clean modern facility. The displays were interesting and the demonstrations were informative. We opted to make an ornament, a sculpture, and pendants amongst our group and these experiences didn’t disappoint. The pendant making appeared slightly more hands on as did the flower making but it was still great fun. We look for and to receiving our finished products. There were still a few things we didn’t see so will definitely have to go back. Next time I’m making a flower 😁

Thank you for visiting and for leaving a review! It's great to hear that you had an amazing time at the Museum. The glass flower and flameworking projects do require more direct interaction with the material to form the shape, which is why these projects also have age restrictions. Blown ornaments and sandblasting is friendly to wider range of ages, including small children. I hope your projects turned out amazing, we are looking forward to your next visit!

There is a senior discount and it is a really interesting museum. We did a couple of the demonstration talks and I make 2 glass pumpkins.
