Open from noon to 4PM, every day except Wednesday and Sunday. Dedicated to the rich glass heritage of the region and the nation, focusing on the glass boom of 1900 - 1940. The museum displays glass products from bottles to lightning rod balls, from telegraph insulators to glass used in automobiles, from pressed to blown tableware, and discusses not only the famous glass factories, but also the hundreds of smaller and often-forgotten glass houses. Also features educational interactive displays, and a museum store.
The West Virginia Museum of American Glass is located in Weston, Lewis County, West Virginia, United States. It was formed in 1993 for charitable, educational and scientific purposes to discover, procure, publish and preserve whatever may relate to the glass industry in West Virginia, the United States of America, and where ever else glass has been manufactured. Later in 2008, the name of the physical museum building was changed to The Museum of American Glass in West Virginia to better emphasize the scope of its glass collections and educational role beyond West Virginia as dictated by its state charter.
