I went here to celebrate my late 21 birthday and had an amazing time looking at all the glass, the exhibit was probably one of the better art galleries I've seen in awhile. This was a rather fun museum and it was cool to see the temporary exhibits definitely will come back some time:)

Hidden Gem in the outskirts of downtown St.Pete. I didn't know exactly what to expect; but boy, am I glad we gave it a shot. We came in for the
Partnership showing they had with Metrocon in Tampa. What we didn't expect was that outside of that specific gallery would be so many other it offers that would not only keep our interests, but seem to be tailored specifically for us. Besides from a pushy saleswoman in the world gift shop, the volunteers and employees were amazing. My son especially was incredibly excited about this space-themed exhibits upstairs, but was also impressed up the pieces that rounded out the asian exhibit downstairs. The kimonos were breathtaking, but the scroll work depicting leadership in China throughout the ages was fantastic! Can't wait for the next exhibit.

This was a very fun museum to explore. It didn’t seam like it would be much from the outside, but had plenty to offer on the inside. One could easily spend hours looking at everything this place has to offer. Something I appreciated was the variety of glass art they have on display. Some of the pieces leave you wondering how they were made while others leave you in awe in how patient the artists must be. For them this would truly have to be a passion with the levels of detail that went into their work. I enjoyed this museum so much I plan on making others trips back to take it in at a slower pace. If you want to be amazed with amazing pieces of glass work/art this is the place for you.

This place is magical! There is so much to see and they always have something interactive going on, whether it's a artist performing or cosplay event. The staff is inviting and informative. We enjoyed this little gem. Parking is on the street and drink refreshments are free.

I absolutely loved this museum! The art doesn’t just inspire—it truly transports you to another world. The creativity and craftsmanship with glass is just incredible. I was amazed by everything on display.

What I appreciated most is that they don’t only support talent from the U.S., but also from around the world. On top of that, many of the pieces share important messages about human rights and culture, which I found beautiful and powerful. It’s amazing how much can be taught through art.

The space itself is stunning, with breathtaking sculptures that really leave a mark. I went with my 7-year-old daughter, and she was fascinated too—she absolutely loved it. It’s definitely a place I want to visit again.

A must visit in St. Pete! A quieter but absolutely beautiful 😍 museum! The glass sculptures and art work are very impressive! 34,000 sq feet of contemporary art and glass sculptures, they also have a lot of various paintings and other types of artwork to enjoy. I wanted to buy everything in the gift shop!

The glass artwork on display here is absolutely amazing. Off the chart. The skill and talent to create the pieces on display is top notch. And the effort and time to find these items is hard to conceive.

Everything is beautifully displayed. The staff is friendly and very helpful. This museum is well worth the stop

If you're a glass lover you can't go wrong with this museum. One of the most famous glass blowers of his time. The family and I spent hours just amazed at all the beautiful glassware.
