    Student discount price was very affordable and I was able to see the permanent exhibitions and also two new ones on the top floor. The glass themed exhibition was so exciting too see. Definitely recommended. Also, it was very quite most of the time.

    This museum was very quiet and enjoyable. I always appreciate Decorative Arts museums and this was no different. The glass exhibit was innovative and the permanent exhibits were a wonderful spread of mediums. It was a great change of pace from the the busier national museum.
