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!

Tucked away in Corning, New York is this expansive but beautiful museum. Many delicately but amazing works of art are displayed here. Even had access to many workshops and shows there. We didn't have as much time as we had hoped to see the other side of the museum. If you have CAA/AAA membership or are part of the Military, you can get an admissions discount. In some workshops, you can make your own piece of glass art work. Best spent as a day activity to give yourself lots of time to walk around...perfect place for that rainy day outing. There is a little outdoor (weather permitting) refreshment stand and I am sure inside as well. Definitely a worthy visit to Corning and this spectacular place of design and art.

Thanks for visiting and for leaving a review. We are so glad you had a wonderful time here! In addition to discounts for CAA/AAA and Military ID, we have discounts for college students and 62+, as well as kids and teens 17 and under are always free. So with the admission tickets being valid for two consecutive days you can truly see it all! We look forward to your next visit when you have more time to enjoy the wonderful world of glass.

Being able to see the history of glass was fun and educational. I couldn't believe the beauty of some glass pieces made bc. Didn't have as much time as I would have liked. My travel buddy had been there forty years ago and says its totally different. I didn't like that much of the glass in the shop was from China. The Corning glass was expensive
