Museum of Glass, Tacoma, Washington

Tacoma鈥檚 Museum of Glass might not be at the top of your must-see list. But it should be. Until I began seeing photos online of Chihuly鈥檚 glass sculptures, I hadn鈥檛 really thought much about glass as an art medium at all. When an opportunity arose to visit family in Seattle, I decided I would look into visiting the Chihuly Garden and Glass exhibit at the Seattle Center. Every time I googled聽Chihuly鈥檚 name, I would also find references to a bridge of glass and other Chihuly exhibits at the Tacoma Museum of Glass. It didn鈥檛 take me long to realize that I had to see BOTH. While I鈥檇 love it if you checked out my visit to Chihuly Garden and Glass, this post is dedicated to all that I loved about the Museum of Glass (MOG) in Tacoma.
