Well, a quick look around turned into 5 hours! It was full of incredible glass creations, dating back 35 centuries. They also had glass vase making and glass breaking demonstrations which the boys really enjoyed.
My favourite section was the contemporary glass exhibit. I was able to take some photos, which you'll see below. The very last two photos are not as clear as I would have liked but I included them anyway as it was such a neat piece of art - a chess board and all the pieces all made out of glass.
To those amoung us, who are able to make these wonderful creations, I am in awe!
Those are really pretty. Are they pricey? Hey, is that Corning as in Corning dishes?
ReplyDeleteYes, Corning as in Corning dishes. The pieces above are gallery only, not for sale but they have an amazing gift shop with tons of pieces. They were all 30% off but still too expensive for me to justify buying one although I would have loved one!
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat place! It's nice to see something so specific to get more than just a glimpse of a topic. That chess set is phenomenal!!!
