The museum opened on September 1st, 1997, preceded by a month of free admission period in August. The collection consists of works by artists ranging from pioneers of (American) Studio Glass Movement (who are thus also pioneers of modern glass) to other contemporary artists who hold influential position in the world of glass art at present. They met in Niijima, competed and collaborated to create these precious and original works of art.
