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).

Clean and not crowded complying with Covid rules well allowing a carefree visit. Beautiful displays of unique glass techs from past to present. Unfortunately unable to create any hot glass. Due to Covid classes are limited making reservations at least a minimum 2 weeks in advance necessary. Was able to participate in a fusing activity which was great fun. Look to spend normal museum prices for food. Gift shop is huge with lots of artists works available for purchase.

It says on their website that it’s kid friendly, I did not see that in any way. My 3 yr old did not enjoy this at all, at one point he was running in an open empty area (with no glass or people nearby) and the worker came over telling us “please tell you your child that is a museum and not a gymnasium”. I wouldn’t call that kid friendly. My 5 year old was having a very hard time with breathing and wasn’t feeling her best from the mask wearing. If the place isn’t full and we can practice social distancing then why are we demanded to wear masks? The hotel around the corner only demanded mask wearing if you can’t social distance. That makes more sense to the human brain. Had we known about this we would NOT have come to this museum. My kids did not like this place at all. We told them we’ll stay just for one show and as soon as that was over we had to leave. Kids couldn’t handle the masks so long. 5 minutes in, my brothers eye glasses got foggy from the mask so he moved it down a bit and it went under his nose. A worker came running towards us, he looked so excited to have the opportunity to tell him that he must pull his mask over his nose. And also said “if I’m gonna need to keep telling you, you will have to leave” Seems like they hired people for this job specifically. And then the one showing the demonstration was wearing his mask OFF HIS NOSE (I took a photo for reference!) so this is clearly not about our health. What is going on??
