A hands-on museum with a huge kaleidoscope

Admire creative glass art at this museum, starting with a kaleidoscope which was certified in 2000 as the world’s largest at the time by Guinness World Records. The biggest attraction is how visitors can enjoy themselves in such a variety of ways. In the classroom on the first floor, you can experience making glass art, selecting from a wide array of options such as stained glass or sandblasting.
