Glass!

Reading Passage

Come and visit the Corning Museum of Glass! Located in New York's beautiful Finger Lakes region, the museum houses the world's premier glass and glassmaking collection.

The museum takes a close look at 35 centuries of glassmaking. Prehistoric tools to the advanced and sophisticated tools of today's glass artists are on display.

Also included in a trip to the Corning Museum of Glass is the Hall of Science and Industry. This hall is a honor to the wonders of glass technology from the tiny optical fibers that are changing communications to the first casting of glass for the Palomar Mount Telescope, one of the largest glass castings ever made.
