This place is amazing. We were able to watch a glass blower and his apprentice make a fish. He was so knowledgeable and walked us through the whole process. The museum is incredible. The shop has a "seconds" section that is about half price. Even the full price items are cheaper in store than online. It's a must if you are in the area!
Great place to visit, especially to learn more about Blenko Glass. Large showroom with lots of pieces to buy, museum upstairs and an observation area to watch actual glass blowing.

I just missed the glass blowing for the day, I'd recommend arriving an hour before the stated end time. The museum and glass garden are interesting. I think what surprised me was the gift shop, mostly factory seconds at fairly high prices... small selection of firsts... but you can order online.

What an amazing place to visit! We took a tour and learned about the history of Blenko glass. We saw the furnaces and watched the craftsman go through the steps to create glassware.

Wow such a cool place to visit. Hand made glass made right in front of your eyes. Perfect gift for every occasion. There is something for everyone here also. From high end glass work to dinner ware to novelty items all made from the historical bento glass factory. Great place for the kiddos as well as long as they look but don’t touch!
