The large silver cone is the "Hot spot" workshop, where they have visiting artist creating glass pieces for visitors to observe. Some blow glass while others create sculptures. It depends on who is the artist for the day/week. The Bridge of Glass connects the glass museum to the Washington Museum of History.
The first section has a wall with different works of blown glass on display. I can't imagine what the cost of the display must be... one of the pieces of that size and character in the Museum Gift Shop was priced at over $1,000.
In the middle were these two "Crystal Towers". I think they are suppose to resemble lights (although the bridge is not lit up or even open past dusk. The Big squares of glass were rather large and impressive. It was so big that Corey could walk underneath the towers with room to spare.
The last part of the bridge had different pieces of glass in the ceiling. It appears that they are set in to the ceiling and layered for a very interesting look. The pictures turned out pretty good, but they were much more impressive in person.
Tomorrow we head to Pike's Market Place in Seattle... I'll let you know how that goes!
