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).

Lots of interactive displays! The displays were historical and topical at the same time. Constantly heard, "Mom, look at this!" from a 13-year-old boy in a glass museum. Great family experience!

My husband and I enjoyed 3-4 hours at the museum and enjoyed every second. The galleries seemed to go on forever and just when you thought you were at the end, another hallway appeared. Some parts we went through fast and others we kept pointing interesting factoids out to one another. We hope to return someday as we only left because it was physically an information overload with so much to see and ...we loved the history too surprisingly. Took in glass blowing demos and listened to two speaker sessions and it was very interesting. The shop was also nice..most items were too expensive for our tastes but they did have a few clearance items of pyrex we really wished we had purchased more of for Christmas gifts. We purchased the two day combo passes and also took in the Rockwell Western Indian Museum that was fabulous on Day 2. We would have gone back to Glass Museum but weather outside was amazing so hiked instead. Changing colors were amazing. Downtown mainstream had some nice shops also.
