Tacoma’s Museum of Glass

This past weekend my wife and I took our baby girl to see the Museum of Glass in Tacoma, WA. If you have not been to the museum then you are certainly missing out on a great opportunity to view fantastic artwork. The building’s architecture alone is enough to warrant a visit. The cone-like shape (above) is the museum’s signature structure and houses the main attraction of the museum: a glass blowing studio in where you can watch some of the trade’s finest artists create their masterpieces.

Although the museum is not particularly large, the array of magnificent work more than makes up for the lack of space. The museum even has a few piece from the “glass master” Dale Chihuly which are truly remarkable. I high recommend a trip over to Tacoma’s Glass Museum; well worth the price of admission.
