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). 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!

This is an exceptionally fine museum, we spent four hours there and could have spent another four. The staff is wonderful, the glass making demonstrations were remarkable and very interesting, the exhibits are incredible. Many glass artists are represented, including Dale Chihuly. Truly, I cannot express how much we enjoyed this museum!

Our ticket experience was excellent. The young lady that helped us was knowledgeable and helpful. She steered us in the right direction. We ended up not only buying tickets for this museum, but we got combo tickets for The Rockwell Museum as well. Then we purchased tickets for the experience of glass blowing and making our own ornaments. There were many choices to choose from but ornaments were our choices. Now, each museum ticket is good for 2 days. I thought this was a great buy.

Jodi, thank you for your kind words, and we are glad to hear about your wonderful experience! So happy to hear you got the chance to not only visit both local museums, but also got the chance to make your own piece of glass during one of our Make you own Glass classes. We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review, and we hope you are able to visit the museum again soon!
