Chihuly Garden and Glass

Absolutely beautiful museum! Chihuly Garden and Glass is a true masterpiece from start to finish. Each glass sculpture is an incredibly intricate piece of art, and it’s almost impossible to imagine how they were even made — the colors, shapes, and sheer scale are breathtaking. The art feels truly priceless, with every exhibit showcasing extraordinary talent and creativity. From the delicate details in the galleries to the stunning installations in the garden, this place is pure magic, especially when the light hits the glass just right. When in Seattle, this is an absolute must-see. Whether you’re an art lover or just looking for something unique, it’s one of the most memorable experiences in the city. I highly recommend taking your time to wander and appreciate every piece. I’ll definitely be returning on my next visit!

I'd heard really good things about these gardens/art museum. I have to admit I was slightly underwhelmed as I went in (even though it was absolutely beautiful), until I learnt more in the videos they were playing in the theatre at the end. For me I needed the context of the artist. Might just be me but thought it was worth mentioning in case. The glass blowing demonstration was also excellent and well worth watching. The IMAX was also included in the ticket and was enjoyable.

If you do nothing else when you come to Seattle, you must come to this museum. Dale Chihuly is a genius when it comes to glass blowing. God gave him incredible talent! You will be amazed at what he has been able to accomplish with color, design, light, shapes, size and so much more. We were completely in awe as we went from room to room in this amazing museum. We could not believe the beauty and size of the glass he had blown. This museum is beautiful and laid out quite well to showcase his works. What an incredible feat for one man and how grateful we are that he is sharing it with all of us. Thank you Mr. Chihuly for this wonderful gift to us. We have been fortunate to view your works all over the world but to able to see this many of your pieces in one place was a real treat. When you come, make sure you not only see what is in the museum but walk outside and spend time in the gardens – so many little hidden treasures. We spent 3 hours here and felt our time was well spent. Take the time to watch them blow some glass – watch all 6 of the short films to understand more about Mr. Chihuly. You will have many photo opportunities here.

This place took me back as it was absolutely amazing to walk in and see the dedication and hard work out into the art. The designs, color and display is beautiful and breathtaking around each and every corner. I would highly recommend visiting this museum. It is stunning.

I visited Chihuly Garden and Glass because it was one of the attractions included with the Seattle CityPASS, which I honestly highly recommend buying if you plan to visit several places in Seattle. It helps you save money and also makes it much easier to organize your days and activities. This place was absolutely incredible ✨ It was my first time visiting a museum focused on glass art, and I was completely amazed. Everything was so colorful, bright, creative, and honestly stunning. The details in every piece are unbelievable, and while walking through the exhibits I kept wondering: “How did they even make this?” The shapes, the colors, the textures… everything feels almost unreal. The day I visited, they also had a live glass-blowing demonstration where you could watch artists melting and shaping the glass in real time. Seeing the process in person made me appreciate the artwork even more because you realize how much patience, skill, and effort goes into creating each piece. I also loved how peaceful and visually inspiring the entire place feels. Every room feels different and gives you something new to admire. I would definitely recommend visiting if you’re in Seattle. I’d say around 30 minutes is enough to walk through the museum, but if you like taking your time, reading, enjoying each exhibit, and taking photos, you could easily spend about an hour there. Overall, such a beautiful and unique experience that I’ll remember for a long time 💙

Chihuly Garden is a very unique museum, and it is must for every art enthusiast. It is unique in every possible way. The moment I stepped into this museum, I immediately start connecting to this artwork with the work of master of surrealism- Salvador Dali, at the same time, it felt like Peter Pan's Neverland. Art has no boundaries particularly for expressions and interpretations.

Such a cool place. I wasn't sure about how engaging it would be for my 7 year old but she loved it too. They had a kids guide to the museum, which made it more engaging and gave her things to read and count and notice throughout the experience. We also walked in at a time they were doing a glassblowing demonstrating which was very interesting! The glass here is beautiful. We learned a lot but also really enjoyed the way it was all on display.

You have to visit here!!! Well worth the price! So beautiful! The glass museum is amazing and the garden are fantastic. One of the most beautiful art museums we've been to. They also have a large gift shop full of all sorts of things. A must see if you're in Seattle. There are also combo tickets with the space needle (next door) that offer a discount, if you're doing both. My husband and I went through twice, in case we missed anything the first go round.
