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).

Went to the Corning Museum decades ago, and loved it then. Boy, has it changed, and in amazing ways. It is now huge, well-curated, and with both changing exhibits and collections on display. Teaches about how different types of glass objects were made, includes hands-on experiences, and has a fabulous collection that frankly leaves you dizzy it's so amazing. It's not just about Corning glassware -- it's got Tiffany, glass from around the world, and extremely high-quality examples. Lots of families visiting, and lots to engage people of all ages. Highly recommend.

The chess board and micro mosaics. History of glass. Fun gift shop. Clean comfortable . Need more than 1 day to take it all in.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share about your visit! For your next visit, don't forget our admission is good for two consecutive days, so maybe you can plan more time to see it all. Thank you again!

We should have planned for more time in the museum. There are so much to see. We made a mistake by thinking the museum was small - it turned out that building we were looking at as we arrived in town was the welcome center of the museum, not the museum itself, which is much larger. The admission ticket is good for two consecutive days so we should have visited in the afternoon/evening we arrived. We got there the next morning as soon as it opened but had to rush through the exhibits and demos due to a prior commitment to be back home on time. You could easily spend 4-5 hours there!
