A Treasure of Colors, Craftsmanship, and American Innovation

Stretch glass is completely Made in America - originally crafted between 1912 and the early 1930s and later revived by the Fenton Art Glass Company between 1980 and 2011. All pieces featured by the Stretch Glass Society (SGS) are authentically American-made, shaped by hand, and finished with the signature "stretch" iridescence that gives the glass its magical satin-like glow.

Visitors will experience:

- The largest stretch glass exhibition on display in any U.S. museum

- Over 60 luminous colors and 100+ hand-shaped forms

- Stretch glass from all nine original manufacturers of the 1920s

- Rare and reshaped pieces finished by master artisans - no two exactly alike
