What to expect
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!

We stopped here on our way to Ithaca and spent over 2 hours exploring the various exhibits ranging from all time periods: starting at ancient glass, up to a modern display from a recent Netflix show! We enjoyed the glass artists showcasing their work through various live demos. Everyone was knowledgeable and friendly! The gift shop is enormous… my kids found some fun souvenirs and I am enjoying a small piece I purchased made by a local artist.The museum is put together very well. We really enjoyed the live glass blowing sculpture they were building. Great day trip!!

There's not much to add to the other reviews. Corning Inc. is a global company embedded in a very small town. The company made this museum as a 'gift to the nation' in 1951. It has state of the art displays on the science, art, and technology of glassmaking from 3500 years ago to the present space-age day. The cafeteria is also great; very family friendly. Escalators, elevators and ramps make this museum very accessible. The gift shop is huge and has 2 levels. If museums got Michelin ratings, this would be the top, 3 stars.Beautiful museum, I only planned on staying an hour or two but was so enthralled that I stayed for 4 hours. So much to see and experience!
