  • The Glass Pavilion is fabulous. It is not too big but still hosts a really good and diverse collection of glass works (which we love to see). We really enjoyed wandering around the collection...

  • Everything made of glass you could possibly think of. The collection and artistry outstanding. Watched an artisan make a large glass vase. The process required the work of at least 6 individuals...

  • Very nice experience! It was not crowded when we visited. Admission is free, there is a parking fee, which is waived if military. Got to see how glass bowls are made from start to end. The person leading the session was detailed and explained what each step does. There are also glass blowing classes you can take here as well as a small gift shop where you can buy some of the work that was made during the classes/sessions. After seeing how glass is blown we walked around the entire Pavilion and saw mesmerizing glass art and historical pieces. Interesting place. Would definitely recommend seeing at least once.
  • What a beautiful place to visit. Make sure you try and view the glass blowing demonstration as it is a wonderful experience to see this in person. Can't say enough good things about the wonderful demonstrators and their amazing work.
  • Just so so beautiful. Every piece is so creative and all the artists are so talented. It quite a place to collect all the historical glass pieces. We were lucky to be there at a time when they was a glass demonstration class was going on. I have seen some of these videos on you tube but it's something else whne you see in person a piece being made. The teacher was very good in explaining to the audience what was happening and what the process it. I could see how much effort and time is spent on it. Definitely a place to go If you are in Toledo. Every piece is in a glass box so you can take your kids as well. Some of the big pieces aren't in a box but it's a definite line out so we can keep distance. Take your kids and show them this art.
  • Amazing collection of glass art objects, both recent and ancient. Free admission, but $10 charge for parking. Near downtown. We spent an hour, but could have spent a lot longer.
  • Lots of beautiful, interesting glass displays. Wish we'd been there at 2:00 when they have a glass blowing demonstration. There are several large outside pieces also. This is part of the Toledo Art Museum and is just across the street.
