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!

There's so much to see, you'll definitely need to use both days to get through it all. Don't forget about adding a studio experience as well. One important thing I would remind people of: you're about a 1hr 30 from Rochester.

This museum is well worth a visit even if you’re not that into glass. The displays were beautiful and the history of glass exhibit was fascinating (but a bit overwhelming!) There’s something for everyone here, we especially liked the glass blowing demonstration by the master glass blowers. It’s mind blowing what they can do with a «lump» of molten glass! The cafeteria was ok; the food was good but they haven’t gone for a «cozy» dining experience; it’s more like «finish up eating so you can go look at/ buy more glass!» We truly enjoyed our time here, but like with any museum you’ll find that you have to speed walk past some of the exhibitions that don’t fascinate you that much in order to get through the whole thing. You can spend hours and hours in here! The museum shop is massive with some really stunning art pieces, plus all kinds of glass related items and souvenirs.
