Daily Glassmaking Demonstrations

A cornerstone of the visitor experience at the Corning Museum of Glass is watching glass come to life at our live demonstrations at multiple venues across the Museum and The Studio.

Professional artists present glassblowing and flameworking demonstrations daily, narrated by our team to share every detail of the process in a concise, informative, and fascinating fashion.
