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!

Very interesting museum of glass. Two of us did the glass blowing workshop. Because of Covid you could not actually 'blow' the glass, it was connected to some compressed air. But you do get to choose custom colors for your piece of sculpture or seasonal offering(ours was a pumpkin).

I really enjoyed the museum content. It was a combo of art, history & demos. They had a nice cafe and gift shop. The people were very helpful and they took social distancing & mask wearing seriously. I highly recommend.

World class technical exhibits showing the evolution of glass engineering absorbed our attention all morning. We also enjoyed seeing the well curated exhibit of glass throughout human history. The shop was filled with the works of many extraordinary artisans. So much to see at once!
