I am going to the Pittsburgh Glass Center next month and am wondering if anyone has any suggestions of other places to go see. I am also stopping at Youghiogheny for the factory tour.

I loved Fallingwater! Though I was there in probably 1978 I think. |

Scooch, where else did you go when you went to Pittsburgh. De and I are going to Youghi and Wissmach the week of the 20th. What is the Pittsburgh Glass Center? Do you have to make reservations to go there?
We are planning to stop at Fallingwater, the Church Brew House, Shanksville where fleight went down. Is there anything else in that area that we would be interested in seeing?

The glass center is nice. More geared towards flameworking and glass blowing. I took a couple of short classes while there. One on making marbles and the other was glass blowing. Had a great time. I did have to make reservations for the classes.

I also went to Youghi. That was cool. It was fun to see how the glass is made.
