The museum displays 6,000
examples of American glassware from the 19th to the 21st century.
Highlights:
The Historical Glass Museum is
the only museum on west of the Mississippi focusing on exhibiting glass
by American makers and artists. The museum has such a large
collection of glass, that in 2008 it will open another museum of glass
in an 1888 Victorian house next to the museum. The new museum
will house Contemporary American and European Glass.
