*Life Fellow<br />
<strong>The</strong> Fellows <strong>of</strong> <strong>The</strong> <strong>Corning</strong><br />
<strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Glass</strong> are among<br />
the world’s leading glass<br />
collectors, scholars, dealers,<br />
and glassmakers. <strong>The</strong><br />
objectives <strong>of</strong> this organization<br />
are (1) to disseminate knowledge<br />
about the history and<br />
art <strong>of</strong> glassmaking and (2)<br />
to support the acquisitions<br />
program <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Museum</strong>’s<br />
Rakow Research Library.<br />
Admission to the fellowship<br />
is intended to recognize<br />
accomplishment, and is by<br />
invitation.
<strong>The</strong><br />
<strong>Corning</strong><br />
<strong>Museum</strong><br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>Glass</strong><br />
<strong>Annual</strong><br />
<strong>Report</strong><br />
<strong>2010</strong><br />
An educational institution<br />
dedicated to the history,<br />
art, and science <strong>of</strong> glass<br />
Chartered by the Board<br />
<strong>of</strong> Regents <strong>of</strong> the University<br />
<strong>of</strong> the State <strong>of</strong> New York<br />
April 27, 1951<br />
(6026)<br />
Accredited by the American<br />
Association <strong>of</strong> <strong>Museum</strong>s<br />
1973, 1986, 1999, <strong>2010</strong>
<strong>The</strong> Year<br />
in Review<br />
<strong>The</strong> Cold Genius, cut<br />
colored glass, lead<br />
came; light box. Judith<br />
Schaechter (American,<br />
b. 1961), U.S., Philadelphia,<br />
PA, 2009. W. 106.7<br />
cm (<strong>2010</strong>.4.121). Gift <strong>of</strong><br />
the Ennion Society.<br />
One <strong>of</strong> the highlights <strong>of</strong> <strong>2010</strong> was receiving<br />
reaccreditation by the American Association <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Museum</strong>s (AAM), the pr<strong>of</strong>essional body that<br />
represents America’s museums. Fewer than<br />
800 <strong>of</strong> the nation’s 17,500 museums are accredited.<br />
Accreditation by the AAM, which<br />
is widely recognized as the ultimate seal <strong>of</strong><br />
approval for museums, is granted in recognition<br />
<strong>of</strong> commitment to excellence, accountability,<br />
and the highest pr<strong>of</strong>essional standards.<br />
Everything described in this <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong><br />
came under scrutiny, and we were proud (but<br />
not surprised) to be reaccredited.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> first applied for, and was<br />
grant ed, accreditation in 1973, and since<br />
then it has never lost this distinction. Our<br />
next review by the AAM is planned for 2023,<br />
by which time we will have been accredited<br />
for half a century.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re was much to be proud <strong>of</strong> in <strong>2010</strong>.<br />
Visitation increased by six percent over 2009,<br />
and during the year we welcomed some<br />
387,000 guests. While individual and family<br />
visitation was slightly lower than in 2009, the<br />
number <strong>of</strong> tour groups grew by 25 percent.<br />
Gross revenue from sales in the <strong>Glass</strong>Market<br />
and by food services was almost $6 million.<br />
Just over one-quarter <strong>of</strong> all individual and<br />
2<br />
family guests participated in the Make Your<br />
Own <strong>Glass</strong> Workshop, which for the first time<br />
generated revenue <strong>of</strong> $1 million. <strong>The</strong> marked<br />
increase in group tours prompted us to provide<br />
a temporary third venue for the Hot <strong>Glass</strong><br />
Show, in the auditorium. We also began Hot<br />
<strong>Glass</strong> Show demonstrations on the third <strong>of</strong><br />
Celebrity Cruises’ Solstice-class ships, and glass<br />
auctions on all three ships generated $58,000<br />
for <strong>The</strong> Studio’s <strong>Glass</strong>making Scholarship Fund.<br />
We continued to enrich our collections. In<br />
addition to purchases <strong>of</strong> glass objects that<br />
range in date from the 17th century to the<br />
present day, we received, as a gift from the<br />
Ennion Society, <strong>The</strong> Cold Genius, an evocative<br />
work in stained glass, made by the American<br />
artist Judith Schaechter in 2009.<br />
Other highlights included a large reversepainted<br />
scene, created about 1750–1775, that<br />
shows the Singelgracht, one <strong>of</strong> Amsterdam’s<br />
many canals; a richly engraved tankard decorated<br />
by Johann Franz Trümper at the Altmünden<br />
glasshouse in Hesse-Kassel, Germany, in<br />
1742; a wineglass with a stipple-engraved portrait<br />
executed in <strong>The</strong> Hague by David Wolff,<br />
one <strong>of</strong> the great late 18th-century masters <strong>of</strong><br />
this meticulous technique; an imposing cameo<br />
glass lamp attributed to Thomas Webb and
Sons <strong>of</strong> Stourbridge, England, about 1880; and<br />
Forest <strong>Glass</strong>, made in 2009 by Katherine Gray,<br />
who used found tumblers to create treelike<br />
forms and reverse the age-old cycle <strong>of</strong> destroying<br />
forests to make glass, by using glass to<br />
make a forest.<br />
One <strong>of</strong> the pleasures <strong>of</strong> working at the <strong>Museum</strong><br />
occurs when the collecting paths <strong>of</strong> curators<br />
and librarians intersect. Members <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Beilby family were celebrated 18th-century<br />
English enamelers who decorated numerous<br />
drinking glasses with coats <strong>of</strong> arms, landscapes,<br />
and other motifs. In <strong>2010</strong>, the Rakow Research<br />
Library acquired, with funds contributed by<br />
the Fellows <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Museum</strong>, a pencil and wash<br />
landscape with trees and buildings beside a<br />
river, drawn about 1765 and signed by William<br />
Beilby.<br />
Seventy-four donors gave the <strong>Museum</strong> 305<br />
objects for its glass collection, while no fewer<br />
than 278 individuals, galleries, and museums<br />
and other institutions enriched the holdings<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Rakow Library.<br />
During the year, we presented six temporary<br />
exhibitions. We extended the 2009 special exhibition,<br />
“Voices <strong>of</strong> Contemporary <strong>Glass</strong>: <strong>The</strong><br />
Heineman Collection,” which was seen by<br />
more than half a million visitors. <strong>The</strong> <strong>2010</strong><br />
special exhibition was “Medieval <strong>Glass</strong> for<br />
Popes, Princes, and Peasants,” an overview<br />
<strong>of</strong> glass vessels made in Europe between the<br />
end <strong>of</strong> the Roman Empire and the beginning<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Renaissance. <strong>The</strong> West Bridge was the<br />
venue for three smaller exhibitions. “Tiffany<br />
Treasures” brought together objects from the<br />
Herbert F. Johnson <strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> Art at Cornell<br />
University, the Rockwell <strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> Western<br />
Art, and our own collection. “East Meets West:<br />
Cross-Cultural Influences in <strong>Glass</strong>making in<br />
the 18th and 19th Centuries,” drawn exclusively<br />
from our collection, explores influences<br />
in glassmaking that resulted from cultural<br />
exchange between western Europe and East<br />
Asia. A small exhibition in the “Masters <strong>of</strong><br />
Studio <strong>Glass</strong>” series focused on the master<br />
engraver Jirˇí Harcuba. Meanwhile, in the<br />
Rakow Library, we exhibited “Drawings for<br />
American Stained <strong>Glass</strong>,” a selection from the<br />
Library’s collection <strong>of</strong> works <strong>of</strong> art on paper.<br />
Two events in <strong>2010</strong> that enhanced the stewardship<br />
<strong>of</strong> our collections were the opening<br />
<strong>of</strong> a new and enlarged conservation laboratory<br />
and the installation <strong>of</strong> compact shelving<br />
in the Rakow Library. <strong>The</strong> new shelving not<br />
only provides superior conditions for existing<br />
hold ings, but also more than triples the Library’s<br />
capacity for paper-based publications.<br />
This is excellent news because, although we<br />
have an ambitious program to digitize the<br />
Library’s holdings, we foresee an increase in<br />
the rate at which we collect paper, especially<br />
in the field <strong>of</strong> unique archival materials.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> produced a varied list <strong>of</strong> publications.<br />
For the first time, the <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong><br />
was published in electronic form (with printed<br />
copies available on demand). We also changed<br />
the contents <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Report</strong> to focus on programs.<br />
Instead <strong>of</strong> appearing exclusively in the<br />
<strong>Report</strong>, acquisitions <strong>of</strong> glass and library materials<br />
were described and illustrated in the first<br />
volume <strong>of</strong> Notable Acquisitions, which reviews<br />
50 remarkable additions to our collections.<br />
Other publications on paper included two<br />
issues <strong>of</strong> our Members’ newsletter, <strong>The</strong> Gather;<br />
volume 52 <strong>of</strong> the Journal <strong>of</strong> <strong>Glass</strong> Studies; New<br />
<strong>Glass</strong> Review 31; Medieval <strong>Glass</strong> for Popes,<br />
Princes, and Peasants; and the first in a projected<br />
series <strong>of</strong> three volumes that will provide<br />
a comprehensive catalog <strong>of</strong> our Islamic glass<br />
collection. Medieval <strong>Glass</strong> accompanied our<br />
special exhibition, and Islamic <strong>Glass</strong> in <strong>The</strong><br />
<strong>Corning</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Glass</strong>, Volume One doc uments<br />
our rich collection <strong>of</strong> scratch-engraved<br />
and wheel-cut glass <strong>of</strong> the early centuries <strong>of</strong><br />
the Muslim era.<br />
At the same time, <strong>The</strong> Studio produced two<br />
DVDs in the “<strong>Glass</strong> Masters at Work” series:<br />
Vittorio Costantini and William Gudenrath,<br />
3<br />
Cartouche study containing<br />
landscape design,<br />
signed “WBeilby .” England,<br />
William Beilby<br />
(English, 1740–1819),<br />
about 1765. Watercolor,<br />
pen, and ink on paper.<br />
H. 15.5 cm, W. 19.9 cm<br />
(CMGL 115145). Purchased<br />
with funds from<br />
the Fellows <strong>of</strong> <strong>The</strong> <strong>Corning</strong><br />
<strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Glass</strong>.
Ron Bentley, president<br />
<strong>of</strong> Chemung Canal<br />
Trust Company, cuts<br />
glass ribbon with<br />
George Kennard, Steve<br />
Gibbs, and Don Pierce<br />
at opening ceremony for<br />
<strong>Corning</strong>’s <strong>Glass</strong>Fest.<br />
both <strong>of</strong> which were created by the Academy<br />
Award–winning filmmaker Robin Lehman.<br />
Educational and public programs are designed<br />
for all age groups. Adult activities included<br />
the 49th annual Seminar on <strong>Glass</strong> and<br />
a one-day conference on medieval art and architecture.<br />
Among our youth programs were<br />
the Junior Curators (who mounted an exhibition<br />
titled “Dreaming with Open Eyes: Fantasy<br />
Meets Reality”), the Explainers program, and<br />
Fire Up Your Future, which focuses on career<br />
possibilities in museums and the arts. Scout<br />
programs continued to increase, and 12,500<br />
schoolchildren visited the <strong>Museum</strong> to participate<br />
in “<strong>Glass</strong>: It’s Art, History, Science, and<br />
More!” Cooperation with area teachers was<br />
reinforced by two Evenings for Educators and<br />
the New York State Middle School Association<br />
Institute, which was hosted by the <strong>Museum</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Studio presented a full program <strong>of</strong> activities.<br />
An international faculty taught 61 intensive<br />
one- or two-week courses in fields<br />
as diverse as glassblowing, hot sculpting,<br />
flameworking, enameling, and beadmaking.<br />
<strong>The</strong> year’s activities included nine 10-week<br />
courses that consisted <strong>of</strong> one session each<br />
week, 30 weekend workshops, and nine oneday<br />
workshops. Seven artists from four countries<br />
received artist-in-residence awards, and<br />
scholarships were awarded to enable 50 artists<br />
and students to take classes at <strong>The</strong> Studio.<br />
Outreach takes many forms. In addition<br />
to deploying the Hot <strong>Glass</strong> Show on the third<br />
<strong>of</strong> Celebrity Cruises’ Solstice-class ships, the<br />
<strong>Museum</strong> presented its <strong>Glass</strong>Lab at the Vitra<br />
Design <strong>Museum</strong> (Germany) during Art Basel.<br />
4<br />
Much closer to home, the Hot <strong>Glass</strong> Roadshow<br />
participated in <strong>Corning</strong>’s first <strong>Glass</strong>Fest, which<br />
was attended by more than 10,000 people who<br />
watched our glassmaking demonstrations in<br />
Centerway Square.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong>ten borrows from institutions<br />
and collectors to assemble our special exhibitions.<br />
“Medieval <strong>Glass</strong>” is a case in point.<br />
Conversely, whenever <strong>Corning</strong>’s treasures<br />
would enhance an exhibition elsewhere without<br />
endangering their safety, we are happy<br />
to lend. In <strong>2010</strong>, we lent objects to 17 institutions<br />
in the United States and abroad. We<br />
also lent an entire exhibition—the Richard<br />
Meitner show that occupied the West Bridge<br />
in 2009—to the <strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Glass</strong> in Tacoma,<br />
Washington. Masterworks by Louis Comfort<br />
Tiffany (including the exquisite vase that appeared<br />
on the cover <strong>of</strong> the 2006 <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong>)<br />
were lent to the Musée du Luxembourg<br />
in Paris, the Montreal <strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> Fine Arts,<br />
and the Virginia <strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> Fine Arts in Richmond.<br />
We made other loans to the American<br />
<strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> Natural History, the Australian<br />
National Maritime <strong>Museum</strong>, the Yale Center<br />
for British Art, and the National Constitution<br />
Center in Philadelphia.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> accomplishes its programs<br />
with support from many sources. <strong>Corning</strong><br />
Incorporated continues to provide munificent<br />
support, as it has done from the day the <strong>Museum</strong><br />
opened. Additional support comes from<br />
donors, foundations, the Fellows <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Museum</strong><br />
(who help to secure acquisitions for the<br />
Rakow Library), Members, and our patron<br />
group, the Ennion Society (which supports<br />
glass acquisitions and educational activities).<br />
At the annual dinner <strong>of</strong> the Ennion Society, a<br />
sale <strong>of</strong> glass objects raised almost $16,000<br />
for the Scholarship and Artist-in-Residence<br />
Fund at <strong>The</strong> Studio. Grants in <strong>2010</strong> included<br />
$36,890 from the New York State Council<br />
on the Arts and $12,500 from the F. M. Kirby<br />
Foundation. We acknowledge this support<br />
with gratitude; without it, we would not be<br />
reporting many <strong>of</strong> the successes, collective<br />
and individual, that are listed in this <strong>Annual</strong><br />
<strong>Report</strong>.<br />
We are looking forward to 2011, when we<br />
will celebrate the <strong>Museum</strong>’s 60th birthday on<br />
May 19 with a variety <strong>of</strong> special programs and<br />
activities.<br />

Development<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Corning</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Glass</strong> gratefully<br />
acknowledges the many donors, Members,<br />
foundations, and corporate contributors that<br />
supported its initiatives in <strong>2010</strong>. Thirteen new<br />
individuals and couples joined the <strong>Museum</strong>’s<br />
patron group, the Ennion Society.<br />
<strong>The</strong> highlight <strong>of</strong> the year was the annual<br />
Ennion Society dinner, held on October 13<br />
in the <strong>Museum</strong>’s auditorium, which presented<br />
a princely celebration <strong>of</strong> medieval glass. One<br />
hundred fifty-seven members <strong>of</strong> the Society<br />
and guests attended, and they enjoyed dining<br />
in a medieval setting. <strong>The</strong> evening was graciously<br />
hosted by James B. Flaws, chairman<br />
<strong>of</strong> the <strong>Museum</strong>’s Board <strong>of</strong> Trustees, and his<br />
wife, Marcia D. Weber. A sale <strong>of</strong> glass objects<br />
raised nearly $16,000 for <strong>The</strong> Studio’s Scholarship<br />
and Artist-in-Residence Fund.<br />
Additional Ennion Society events in <strong>2010</strong><br />
included private dinner receptions—at the<br />
homes <strong>of</strong> Society members—for “Meet the<br />
Artist” lecturers Dante Marioni, Jirˇí Harcuba,<br />
and April Surgent; a private tour <strong>of</strong> our special<br />
exhibition, “Medieval <strong>Glass</strong> for Popes, Princes,<br />
and Peasants,” led by David Whitehouse; and<br />
a reception for the Rakow Commission by<br />
Luke Jerram, which included the unveiling <strong>of</strong><br />
two flameworked and blown glass sculptures,<br />
Smallpox Virus and HIV (Human Immunodeficiency<br />
Virus), from his “<strong>Glass</strong> Microbiology”<br />
series.<br />
Gifts given by members <strong>of</strong> the Ennion Society<br />
during the year were used to add an impressive<br />
work by the American artist Judith<br />
Schaechter to the <strong>Museum</strong>’s collection. <strong>The</strong><br />
acquisition <strong>of</strong> this object, a stained glass panel<br />
titled <strong>The</strong> Cold Genius, was voted upon by<br />
members <strong>of</strong> the Directors’, Curators’, Sustainers,<br />
and Collectors Circles <strong>of</strong> the Society.<br />
In December, Ennion Society members<br />
were invited to preview our Holiday Open<br />
House glass sale. <strong>The</strong> Studio Holiday Open<br />
House weekend raised almost $40,000 for <strong>The</strong><br />
Studio’s Scholarship and Artist-in-Residence<br />
Fund. Proceeds from glass auctions on Celebrity<br />
Cruises’ Solstice-class ships added $58,000<br />
to the <strong>Museum</strong>’s <strong>Glass</strong>making Scholarship<br />
Fund.<br />
Grants in <strong>2010</strong> included $36,890 from<br />
the New York State Council on the Arts;<br />
$12,500 from the F. M. Kirby Foundation,<br />
which helped us to purchase an 18th-century<br />
armorial tumbler enameled by members <strong>of</strong><br />
the Beilby family; $3,000 from the Samuel H.<br />
Kress Foundation to allow Dr. O. Akin Ige,<br />
a pr<strong>of</strong>essor and glass researcher from Nigeria,<br />
to attend the interim meeting <strong>of</strong> the International<br />
Council <strong>of</strong> <strong>Museum</strong>s’ Committee for<br />
Conservation working group, held at the<br />
<strong>Museum</strong> in October; and $3,500 from <strong>The</strong><br />
Triangle Fund, which supported <strong>The</strong> Studio’s<br />
cooperative glassblowing and flameworking<br />
program with the <strong>Corning</strong>–Painted Post High<br />
School Learning Center.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Membership Department welcomed<br />
1,000 new Members in <strong>2010</strong>.<br />
About 270 Members attended the opening<br />
<strong>of</strong> our special exhibition, “Medieval <strong>Glass</strong> for<br />
Popes, Princes, and Peasants.”<br />

<strong>Report</strong><br />
Operating Results<br />
Attendance at the <strong>Museum</strong> grew each month throughout <strong>2010</strong>, contributing to the strong<br />
financial results for the year. Visitor revenues were 14 percent stronger than in the previous year<br />
because <strong>of</strong> the increase in visitation, improved sales in the <strong>Glass</strong>Market, and greater participation<br />
in the Make Your Own <strong>Glass</strong> Workshop. Visitor revenues totaled $9.2 million, a $1.1 million<br />
increase over 2009. Other earned revenues also contributed to the financial success <strong>of</strong> <strong>2010</strong>.<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> ended fiscal year <strong>2010</strong> with annual operating revenues exceeding operating expenses<br />
by $2.2 million. <strong>The</strong> abbreviated version <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Museum</strong>’s operating results shown below<br />
reflects <strong>2010</strong> year-end results for the general operating fund in comparison with last year (dollars<br />

<strong>2010</strong> 2009<br />
Total revenues and other funding $ 36,945 $ 33,936<br />
Total expenses 34,761 33,140<br />
Operating surplus $ 2,184 $ 796<br />
Other important results for <strong>2010</strong> were:<br />
1. <strong>Museum</strong> visitation grew six percent above 2009 attendance to 387,000.<br />
a. Individual and family visitation was down two percent from 2009 because <strong>of</strong> reduced<br />
regional travel.<br />
b. Tour groups were up 25 percent, to their highest level <strong>of</strong> visitation in 12 years, including<br />
a significant increase in Chinese and Indian tourists to the <strong>Museum</strong>.<br />
c. In addition, 35,300 people attended a rich series <strong>of</strong> education programs and public<br />
programs at the <strong>Museum</strong>.<br />
2. Make Your Own <strong>Glass</strong> Workshop revenues reached $1.0 million for the first time in <strong>2010</strong>, an<br />
11 percent increase over 2009. A quarter <strong>of</strong> all individual and family <strong>Museum</strong> visitors made<br />
glass at the workshop, up from 22 percent in the previous year. In <strong>2010</strong>, 52,000 glassmaking<br />
experiences were provided.<br />
3. Total glass and library acquisitions were $1.2 million. Donations to the <strong>Museum</strong>’s collections<br />
were valued at $428,000.<br />
4. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> Operating Reserve Fund balance at the end <strong>of</strong> the year was $20.6 million,<br />
up from $17.5 million at the end <strong>of</strong> last year. <strong>The</strong> fund recorded investment gains during<br />
<strong>2010</strong>, and $1.1 million <strong>of</strong> the <strong>2010</strong> operating surplus was transferred to the fund before<br />
