What to expect

Chihuly Garden and Glass is an exhibit showcasing the studio glass of Dale Chihuly. The project features three primary components: the Garden, the Glasshouse, and the Interior Exhibits. The 100-foot-long installation inside of the Glasshouse is one of Chihuly's largest suspended sculptures. The museum regularly partners with Seattle Public Schools to invite elementary school students to visit the museum's galleries and take part in hands-on classes. The museum also offers live glassblowing demonstrations and Highlight Tours, which provide information about the artwork and end with a live glassblowing demonstration. The place also hosts events like the Refract: The Seattle Glass Experience, a free art and glass festival
