Huge gift shop. Prices from one dollar to thousands Extensive history of glass use and its history . Not near enough for me about the discovery of the process or current processes of production.

If you want the veterans discount wait until you are at the museum to get your ticket 17 versus 20 per adult ticket. The museum itself was very informative and wonderful displays. Did the sandblasting educational and brought home a goblet souvenir mug and two fish bowls. My teens loved it! Food and shopping were excellent! Will go again when come up to visit.

During our day trip to Corning New York we decided to visit the Glass Museum what a great experience. Loved the glass blowing demonstrations. Only disappointment was the cost of their glass Christmas ornaments I couldn’t see paying $50-$80-ugh

Thank you so much for stopping by on your visiting to Corning and taking the time to share your experience. We are so glad that you enjoyed your visit! The glassblowing demonstration is often a favorite experience for many visitors. We’re sorry that you were not able to locate ornaments in the price range you were looking for while shopping. We do offer items at a variety of price points in the Shops, and we apologize if locating items in your price range was difficult. We will provide that feedback to our retail team. We do also offer a Make Your Own Glass experience where you can create your own ornament at the Studio. This may be a great option for you next time! We hope you visit again in the future!
