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).

there is a lot of cool exhibits at the museum of glass. also loved watching the glass blowing demonstration it is very interesting to watch and I found it to be mesmerizing. there was so much to look at and would have loved to try the classes where you can make something out go glass yourself but we went later in the day and didn't have enough time. we were not able to go back the next day but when we bought our tickets they told us it was good for that day and the next day also which was nice.

My family planned an overnight visit in Corning so we could make snowmen and take them home the next day. We were able to see most of the demonstrations, which are fantastic, on Saturday and caught the other ones on Sunday. Your admission is good for two consecutive days. Our kids are older than the last time we were there and they seemed to get more out of it this year. Looking at the exhibit that showed all the glass from many, many years ago, to today's glass, was fascinating! We ate lunch in the cafeteria. The prices were mostly reasonable and the food was pretty good. There's a lot to see in the gift shop but the things I really liked were definitely out of my budget range. The glassware is beautiful. We went to make our snowmen and were helped by 2 very friendly people! They made our experience a lot of fun and very memorable. The snowmen turned out so cute! I would definitely encourage everyone to go to the museum. The demonstrations alone are worth the price the admission!

Thank you for visiting and taking the time to leave such a thorough review Debbie! We are happy to hear that your entire family found parts of the Museum that appealed to them. With a collection that speaks to the art, history, and technology of glass and four different live demonstrations, there really is something for everyone! We hope you will be back to visit us again soon and that you enjoy your snowmen for years to come!
