Wow, what an museum!!! I don't mean to sound elitist, but…read moreone doesn't think Toledo, Ohio when it comes to world class art. This place is on another level of awesome! As is the glass museum across the street, this museum is free to visit. The exhibits here are world class and include a massive array of art over a 4,000+ year time frame. We also enjoyed the sculpture works outside the museum. I mean, who the hell doesn't want to get on a huge tire swing, play musical instruments or lay on a hammock made of glass?! Just blown away amazed with this place! Thank you!!!

We did enjoy the existing content however, which included 3 full rooms of display and a glass blowing demonstration that was both interesting to watch and very informative to listen to. The master glass blower is the program director who created the glass piece. We really enjoyed the presentation. I'd easily stop back in once new exhibits (rooms) are created. Cheers

One of my stops while in Toledo was the Toledo Art Museum. Part of the art museum, but still sort…read moreof separate is the Glass Pavillion. It is across the street from the rest of the museum and houses a large collection of exquisite glass art. So many of the pieces are absolutely beautiful and showcase the versatility of this material in art. The pieces look so delicate and breathtaking. Like the Chandelier Campiello Del Remer #2 by Dale Chihuly, which you see upon first entering the Glass Pavillion. It was one of my favorite pieces of the entire collection. Two other ones that really caught my eye were The Counterman-Diner by Emily Brock, the details capturing an American Diner all in glass must have taken so much time and care. But in regard to detail, I was floored by The Chasidim-Franciscan Chess Set by Gianni Toso. It is an intricately detailed features on each chess piece is amazing. One side are Catholics and the other of the Jewish faith. Its an incredible piece of art! I spent quite some time just looking at it in awe, especially because I love Chess so much. While at the Glass Pavillion, I was also treated to watching someone create a glass vase. That is pretty cool! I would definitely recommend spending an hour or two just in the Glass Pavilion, it is so worth it!

She lead me over to a very old looking wood and copper door and told me to just open it and go in. Intrigued by her invitation, I walked in and was amazed by what I saw! I was in total awe of this 1750 seat theater that was built in 1933. It has a beautiful Ancient Grecian look with columns and a beautiful curved ceiling that can be lite up like it's daytime or night, depending on the mood to be conveyed. It's all very classy looking. Words hardly do this facility justice, so I've posted several photos of this beautiful old theater. 5 Stars

There are stairs up to the theater and down to the basement. I am unsure whether there are any other entrances that are accessible being as this is an old building. Great affordable public theater.
