A terrific experience. The museum displays the history of glass making and also has several glass art galleries along with live glass blowing demostrations. Everything that we experienced was great. The gift shop is huge and is worth viewing even if you don't buy anything. We ending up sending over four hours in the museum. We had lunch in their cafe which was a terrific surprize. The counter service was quick and the food fresh and tasty. The is a must stop if you are visiting Corning.

I'm so glad we went to the museum. We had no idea all the wonderful exhibits we'd see or the demonstrations. It took us a few hours to walk through and some of the displays were breathtaking. Incredible all the things that would be made with glass and the talent of those who produced these items blew us away.

Beautiful facility. Live demonstrations and the ability to make your own souvenir! Highly recommend. Be sure to book a glass class early to be able to make something and you have the option to have your item shipped home. Nice eat in cafeteria style restaurant. Great stop in The Finger Lakes Region give yourself easily 5 hours to tour the museum, watch the demos and make something. And of course tour the gift shop which has some amazing glass work in itself
