The Charles Hosmer Morse Museum Of American Art Reviews

This museum is just a gem! I didn't realize until I went there that Mr Tiffany did any other type of art other than stained glass. I enjoyed seeing his paintings and the collection of his glassworks is tremendous. If you go there you were most certainly enjoy it.

This museum was our main reason for coming up to the Orlando area, and it’s a must-see for those who like Tiffany and art. The collection of Tiffany lamps, vases, and stained glass is breathtaking. The chapel is inspired, and the recreation of rooms from the estate is a sight to behold. The museum is one level, and we had no trouble spending 2 hours admiring the art and Tiffany glass.

This museum is a must see for Tiffany art lovers!
You will find everything from sketches for designs, lamps, furniture & so much more. There is an installation of architectural masterpieces salvaged from Tiffany’s home. I won’t write much more, just go and see for yourself what is so spectacular, you won’t be disappointed!

This was a wonderful experience especially if you love Tiffany and stained glass. the museum had a diverse exhibit of Tiffany works. The chapel was breathtaking and so very different from other chapels that i have been in.

In the land of the mouse, there is a hidden gem of an experience and this is it! Great couple of hours to spend on a "wintery" Florida afternoon.
The museum blew us away with its extensive, and well curated, collection of all things Tiffany. Not only did it have the usual displays, but the actual chapel that Tifany exhibited at the Chicago World Fair. The chapel was reconstructed after sitting in neglect at a church basement. There were room replicas of Tiffany's estate with the actual glass artifacts.
No live tours, but an audio that you use via cell phone and numerous pamphlets.
The biggest thing that was jaw dropping was that regular admission is only $6 for adults and $5 for seniors. Try finding that anywhere with the quality of such a fine museum.

Beautiful museum, with an extensive collection, the chapel was mind boggling!
Such a gem in winter park!
Only$6 to enter and probably 5x the size of Orlando Museum of Art!
Lovely! I super recommend
They also have a nice shop that’s open to the public!

We visited the Morse Museum today and had a very pleasant and relaxing time. How wonderful that they offered free admission for the month of August. This is a must see if if you're a local like us.

This is a beautiful little museum devoted to preserving Tiffany's contributions to the arts. It's located on a nice shopping street in an older part of Winter Park, so after visiting the museum, there are lots of shopping opportunities and places to eat.

Many of the pieces on display are from the chapel that Tiffany designed and built, including some solid wood doors with handcrafted hinges. Other pieces came from the remains of his estate after it burned down. Along with historic pictures showing the original installations, seeing the multitude of art objects he created is inspiring. Even the tops of the capitals on the columns of his arbor were made to look like bouquets of daffodils. An amazing artist, and one who, without the foresight shown by the founders of this museum, would live on mostly only in books. Well worth a visit.

The amount of Tiffany Glass the Museum has is wonderful. You should watch the short video they have upon entering the Museum. It helps understand how and why they have obtained the amount of Glass they have as well as interesting information! LOVED it!!!

A high quality intelligently organized museum primarily of Tiffany but also related art. It is very well done, a large enough assortment of displays to make the visit engrossing for 1+ hours. This is a highlight of Winter Park.

Starting with the 1893 chapel he crated for the Colombian Exposition in Chicago, and it’s cross chandelier. The stained glass windows that were saved from his house fire and his last piece named the “Tree of Life” which he did in his 80’s, shows what an outstanding artist he was.
A must see!

The Tiffany collection is breathtaking, particularly the chapel and the Entombment. Every work of art is absolutely stunning. We go there every time we are in Florida.

It's easy to get lost in time when viewing this gorgeous collection, especially when the pieces are arranged similar to their original locations. The altar, of course, is the highlight, but I also enjoyed the diversity of Tiffany's talents. The video showing the acquisition of these works is very well done, as are the booklets in each room, allowing the viewer to get additional information as they follow the exhibits' numbers.

The ladies at the front desk are friendly and welcoming, and there's a well-stocked room for things to purchase.

HINT: The museum was cold, so you might want to bring a light wrap.

Small, intimate and welcome air, especially in the summer. Having been an employee at several museums in my life, I view museums with more scrutiny. The docents seem to care, the staff is congenial, even the guards are professional and welcoming.
The gift shop is one of the best I have ever visited. GO!

Tiffany lamps are known today but at one time all kinds of Artwork and Artifacts were produced for the finest homes in the world. Tiffany artwork was the height of fashion. And then styles changed. Now priceless Tiffany installations were destroyed. Tiffany designed home interiors were bulldozed. Toward the end of this destruction a small group of people began to save, salvage and repair these classic works. Today they reside in the Morse Museum. Even if you have seen Tiffany works at other fine museums they were almost certainly on loan from the Morse Museum. Do not miss this opportunity. If you live in Central Florida or are visiting, take the half hour drive north of Disney and see this priceless collection. Many many artworks and installations are presented along with contextural history, like explaining how the work was produced for a World's Fair. Go to the Morse Museum. Learn and love the art. Also enjoy the world's best Tiffany gift shop. Allow a half day to appreciate the works.

This is certainly the best small to medium sized museum we have visited. It focuses on the American Decorative Arts, and particularly the work of Louis Comfort Tiffany. The museum certainly appears to have the largest collection of his work in the world. It is lovingly displayed, along with extensive commentary on the work, his life and his influence on the decorative arts. It includes a large number of his signature lamps, a number of his panels, a number of recreations of the rooms at his huge estate on Long Island, and a restaging with original pieces from the beautiful chapel he created for the Colombian Exposition in Chicago—breathtaking.

There was one serious flaw that needs to be corrected. Included in your $6 admission ($5 for seniors) is a cell-phone audio tour. Unfortunately, the audio tour starts at the complete other end of the museum from where you enter. Nobody told us or anyone else this. We spent over one-half hour trying to find numbers on the exhibit that corresponded to the beginning of the audio tour on our cell phones.

We visited here Dec. 26 mostly to see their Tiffany items but enjoyed everything we saw here. They do have a beautiful collection of Tiffany glass lamps, windows, jewelry, and pottery—all quite stunning. I have seen bigger displays of his lamps at other exhibitions but not so much of his iridescence and art glass items, so that was a treat, as was seeing the chapel room decorations. Aside from the Tiffany items, my favorite display was “Earth into Art—the Flowering of American Art Pottery.”

Before exploring the galleries, there are two introductory videos to view. All in all, we spent 90 minutes total here and enjoyed every minute. There is plentiful free onsite parking, admission is very reasonable, and the museum was easy to find. This museum has great information at their website about their collections and visiting the museum; browsing there really inspired me to visit in person.

Museums are not typically a place that I would visit - but, I am so glad that I made the choice to visit this one! Watch the brief video when you arrive and then be amazed by some of the awesome stained glass that you will see. Do NOT miss the Tiffany chapel- just remember to breathe when you leave!

Run, don’t walk, to this magnificent museum—primarily of all things about and by Louis Comfort Tiffany. The museum is laid out well with good, free explanatory booklets describing objects in each of its many rooms. Free parking behind building. Start your visit by watching the two films about the museum, Tiffany, and the museum contents, which run on a continuous loop, then go explore the stunningly special and diverse objects from lamps to windows to jewelry to sketching books on display. Lots to treasure here.

Fantastic to see the Tiffany works of art. Not just lamps. Give yourself enough time to take a slow walk through.

The Morse Museum is an excellent venue to view Tiffany glassworks and so much more such as American arts and crafts, pottery, various artworks, etc. Check out their website to see what is on exhibit as well as pricing.

If you are a fan of Tiffany glasses, this is the place you should not miss (Even you are not, this place still worths a stop if you visit Winter Park/Orlando). Several iconic Tiffany glass items showing in Metropolitans in NYC were donated by the people who founded this museum. Beyond the galleries, there are a couple orientation films showing where the museums came from and how some Tiffany’s ended up in here. One tip: the admission ticket is good for re-entry for the same day. If you want to step out to grab a lunch or wander around the parks or tours nearby (I highly recommend the Scenic boat tour if you have time), you can come back later without extra charge.

The museum is small but the exhibits are beautiful. We completely enjoy our tour looking at awesome pieces of art. We had no idea how connected Tiffany was to Winter Park and the people in the Central Florida area. You do not have to commit to a lot of time there but the pieces were fascinating

What a beautiful museum! We were so surprised at the huge collection of Tiffany glass. And the price was so reasonable. Don't miss the chapel! What a great way to spend a few hours on a Saturday!

Nice museum. Very reasonable admission. Laid out efficiently. The short film is very helpful in appreciating the displays. So nice that it is centrally located to downtown.

If you like the work of Louis Comfort Tiffany, if you like American Decorative Arts, if you like the history of the Gilded Age, you should come to this museum. It has a truly comprehensive collection of the work of Tiffany Studios (I believe the largest if the world). It includes the Chapel from the Chicago Worlds Exposition. The works are beautifully displayed and there is a very helpful cellphone tour. One of the best museums I have been in.

Anyone with an interest in Tiffany glass will find this museum fascinating. It has an eye-opening array of lamps and glassware and offers useful information on Tiffany and his company.

Oddly, there was little or nothing about Morse, who he was and how he earned his fortune as an engine manufacturer.

We went to the Museum and had a great time! Each room had a theme and brochure which described the works presented. There were Tiffany lamps, paintings, pottery, mosaics and stained glass, just to name a few. The collection was beautiful, remarkable and vast. We also enjoyed art works and architecture from Mr. Tiffany’s home, Laurelton Hall. The chapel was a highlight of the visit. The price to get in was well worth the money!

My favorite museum to visit close to Orlando. I have a video from my visit on my youtube channel (link in my profile). You can expect to see intricate stained glass art, beautiful Tiffany lamps and jewelry. and friendly staff there to help. This is located on Park Ave. which is a high end area of Winter Park. Many museums close by to visit and lots of cute bistros to dine at.

We have visited a few times and always manage to see different things. The lamps are fabulous. The daffodil walk must have looked amazing when it was in the grounds of Laurelton Hall.

Photos don’t really do justice to the items on display.

Go and spend a few hours at the museum.

We had about six hours to spend before our flight left Orlando and someone recommended this museum which we absolutely loved. It's so much more than the famous stained glass lamps - an entire chapel designed by Tiffany has been moved to this location along with large portions of his own home. There is also a gallery of American art, some of which was really excellent. Well worth a stop.

Winter Park itself is a lovely little town, we enjoyed a nice lunch and spent some time walking down the main shopping street and gardens.

Teiffany, and the founders of this museum, believed that Art is necessary for human existence, that it nurtures our souls. They are right, and this museum provides a wealth of that nourishment. The exhibits are mainly, though not exclusively, from the genius of Tiffany, whose imagination and skill are truly awe inspiring. And I salute anyone who becomes fabulously wealthy (as Tiffany was) by being really good at something--JK Rowling and Peter Jackson come to mind. And, yes, he was born into wealth, and he inherited a huge amount from his father, but his success was from his artistry.
So spend a few hours here sometime, and leave a better person.

A must-see if you are in Winter Park! We could have spent hours and hours there. Overwhelmingly beautiful. The largest Tiffany glass collection in the world !

You enter the room on your right, and you get instantly immersed in pure beauty. You just soak with every pore that ambiance created by the glass art. The museum is a gem with works from Tiffany and contemporaries. And if you bump into docent Bill, hang around. The man is an enthusiastic source of knowledge of all things Tiffany.

Chanced upon this museum while planning my trip to Fla. Having seen an exhibit of Tiffany stained glass door panels in Chicago several years ago I was anxious to see more of his work. This museum was put together through the collection of a former Tiffany student and it demonstrates the mind blowing artistic abilities of this man in art, ceramics, glass, jewelry, lamps, etc. It cantains a replica of the chapel he produced for the World Epedition in Chiago in 1893 and also a partial replica of the artist's home in Long Island. Well worth the minimal fee of $10. We spent over 6 hours reviewing the whole collection.

So beautiful!! I was in awe! So long in this town and never been! I will show some photos! Very inexpensive and a Panera Sandwich Shoppe across the way. I loved the beauty put it not the architectural plan of the building. Love 💗 Love will be back again!

We really enjoyed the museum! It's educational and has a lot of his lamps and art work! We will be back.

If you are looking for something that is not so touristy in the Orlando area this is for you. I like taking family and friends here because it just magnificent and not a tourist trap.

What an amazing museum -- American decorative arts, with a great many Louis Comfort Tiffany pieces - glassware, lamps and especially the chapel. Items are well displayed and the staff pleased to answer questions.

Stopped by during Saturday afternoon visit to Park Ave, for my annual purchase of Tiffany glass wall calendar.

Gift shop open to outside guests with extremely observant covid-19 practices. Guard in white gloves enforces use of hand sanitizer each guest upon entrance via automatic dispenser inside door with appropriate signage. Masks enforced.

Museum gallery entrance is buy reservation appointment only, with admission gate side of building.

Such a joy to encounter incredible artistic beauty, tucked away in this tiny museum in Orlando. An incredibly preserved and curated collection of Tiffany glass and artwork and other artists of the time. The furnishings and glass work taken from the Tiffany home is exquisite. If you are looking for a way to spend a few quieter hours in Orlando, please check this collection out.

Check out their website for parking tips.

Spectacular collection of Tiffany glass and other glass artwork. Odd process of curation with a paper pamphlet in each room.

Don't miss this amazing place. Truly a gift to Winter Park. Exquisite collection of American art. I love the Morse Museum!

This is the Taj Mahal of Tiffany! An amazing collection of everything Tiffany, with a few other great names thrown in. The Chicago World's Fair Cathedral (which was in pieces in a garage at the abandoned Tiffany Mansion, Laurelton Hall, is a site to behold. This museum will just amaze you with its scope, quality and pure beauty. This is a must stop for any lover of art!!!!!

Situated in downtown Winter Park, this delightful museum is a must tiffany artifacts. Town has a quaint-like atmosphere, not often found, let alone in Florida. Museum is convenient by car or by train, another rarity. A tribute to Louis Comfort Tiffany, an artist and designer, and this small museum is a fitting tribute to his spectacular work. Set in an intimate setting you can admire dazzling lamps and windows as well as pottery and 19th and 20th century paintings. Highlight for me was the inspiring Romanesque chapel built for the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition. I thought the low lighting increased the visitor expectation. Well worth the time and money in this gem of a town in Central Florida. Recommended.

Set at the north end of Park Avenue, this museum has a wonderful collection of Tiffany art. Glass, sketches, paintings of Tiffany. Also many works from those who studied with Tiffany. Easy, one-floor layout allows for easy access to all the exhibits. The lighting highlights the exhibits. The Tiffany Chapel is exquisite and a great surprise for the low entrance fee! Could easily spend several hours here, but you can get the gist in 1.5 hours.

Louis Comfort Tiffany is well known for his beautiful stained glass art and lamps. When you see his magnificent paintings and sculptures, you can understand why he's a genius.

We visited in September. The Tiffany collection is simply unbelievable. You will see things you would not see anywhere else.

In particular the chapel. This structure was nearly lost, it is mind bogglingly amazing. The craftsmanship and the way they display it is worth the trip to the museum alone. Indeed, we mostly went in December to see the chapel.

Enjoyable day in Winter Park and ended up at the Morse Museum to view Louis Comfort Tiffany’s art and learn about his life. So happy the Museum was still open!

So exciting and rewarding to walk from room to room in quiet reflection of the works of Louis Comfort Tiffany. If lived in area would be a member to enjoy many times during year!!! Believe other artists exhibited were here because he enjoyed their work. From glass to wood to paintings to jewelry, many mediums used to delight the eye! Each room has a brochure to help describe some of the displays. Reading them now as well as researching more details. Definitely worth finding your way and a parking garage to go here! The gift shop is loaded with lovely surprises as well.

Museum had a great exhibit of some of Tiffany’s work. Staff was kind and helpful. The museum was impressive and I definitely want to visit again in the future.

The area is wonderful as well. Easy parking for the museum and plenty of restaurants around if your looking for something after the museum.

We had never heard of this museum until a friend recommended it just before we visited Orlando. Amazing collection of Tiffany art. Very inexpensive too.

Some beautiful glass works and many fine pieces of art. Staff was really helpful and provided tours if you so desired. It was a minimal amount of money and well worth the output.

One of the nicest museums, fabulous collection of Tiffany treasures, great size, not so large it is overwhelming to the young or young at heart...well planned... Beautiful space. Helpful docents...definitely a must visit....

I had no idea how extensive this museum’s collections are. I should have scheduled two days to tour it instead of one. After room after room of masterworks, my mind was almost delirious with beauty. All this for $5 in admission fees?

The works are beautifully exhibited, and there are handouts in each gallery which identify and date every piece on display. I collected each one and will keep them as wonderful references.

There were few visitors on the Saturday before Christmas, so it was delightful to be able to spend hours without fighting crowds. This museum has been on my Bucket List for years, and I am so happy to finally see the fabulous collection.

The curators were able to place Tiffany within his historical context, and that made the experience even more meaningful. The piece de resistance is surely the chapel. But every gallery held treasures, and this was a world class museum experience.

A lovely way to spend a chilly day in Florida. Well organised exhibits of Tiffany Lamps and Stained Glass panels. A choice of just walking a quick tour on your own or a guided audio tour on your phone with lots of detail. Not a place for kids as it isca quick place to reflect on some wonderful art.

Amazing museum. So glad the chapel was saved. What a story. Everything was over the top beautiful. Well done.

The museum has amazing pieces I'd never hoped to see in person. I heartily recommend it to anyone who loves art and/or wants to understand aesthetics over the past century.

We were surprised by this gem of a museum in Winter Park. First it is a bargain - $6 for adults. Second it is a magnificent display of Tiffany glass. Amazing really. We had a wonderful docent give us interesting information about the chapel/altar display. The other artwork, furniture and ceramics were great also. Highly recommend a visit!

Amazing collection. The church set up was beautiful. The staff was very informative. I have visited several times and bring friends and family to visit when they are in town.

This is a real hidden gem because it will not show up in an Orlando things to do search. The artwork in this museum is very easy to appreciate and it is perfectly organized. There are pamphlets in every room describing every piece of art. The free audio guide through your cell phone is amazing! The staff is amazing and helpful. We spent about 2 hours and it was not enough for us. Please take a look at the whole layout of the museum and plan your visit accordingly so you don't have to rush through important displays, like the chapel, at the last minute. It is a small museum and it could be enjoyed in less time, we just liked it a lot!

While showcasing major works of Tiffany, the museum has paintings as well. However, the Tiffany exhibits are breathtaking. Check it out. Visit their wonderful gift shop. Worht the trip to Winter Park.

It's been a while since we visited the Morse Museum, but what a surprise we got when we toured it. If you like stained glass, then this is one place you do not want to miss if you're in Central Florida. It's all Tiffany glass and the Chapel was re-assembled there after taking possession of cartons of the pieces!

This museum is for those who are interested in Tiffany and the history of Tiffany. There is very little Tiffany jewelry. This museum is more about the Tiffany house hold items, such as lamps and vases. And the rooms in the Tiffany house.

The museum is relatively small. You should be able to have a good visit in two hours.

Parking is a short distance away and free. It is an easy walk to the museum.

One of our group used a walker. It was not difficult for her to get from the parking garage to the museum. The museum was easy to navigate with a walker. I saw quite a few people with wheelchairs.

The museum is in a small downtown area with cute shops and restaurants. There are a few steps involved in getting to the downtown restaurants. We managed very easily.

I would recommend this museum for a lovely afternoon out.

The Morse Museum is good for the soul.
The collection of Tiffany glass and other creations are beautifully displayed, and each area has a pamphlet that gives more information about the items in the room. The Daffodil Terrace was my favorite, but it is all magnificent.
There is a parking garage close by and you can also walk to the main street with shops and restaurants.

Came here and was surprised to find it was free for art week! You can listen to the guide on your own cell phone. Beautiful pieces and fun to learn about Tiffany’s life.

Amazing collection of Tiffany art work. Great spacious museum. Knowledgeable guided tours and not too expensive to enter. Ticket allows multiple entries per day. We enjoyed our visit.

I have been there before but never tire of seeing the exhibits. This museum, filled with objects from the American Arts & Crafts period, is a joyous place. The exhibits are very well done and documents are available to help you learn more about what you are seeing. I loved the newer installation of Tiffany's chapel. This is an easy place for a handicapped person to get around. Don't miss the continuous-loop films showing in the small theater near the entrance.

Beautiful collection of works and insight into the life of Louis Comfort Tiffany. Treasures from his Long Island estate, sketches, paintings, stained glass works of all sizes. A look at the Tiffany factory, manufacturing, the people behind the creations. Beautiful home decor, jewelry, history of glass and techniques. Plenty of other works of art outside of Tiffany realm. A real find, and a bargain admission if $6. Lovely location in Winter Park, in itself worth a walk down Park Avenue.

Only found out about this place after picking up a leaflet while we were waiting for the e lake boat tour. This museum is the place to go for anyone who likes Tiffany glass. What a fantastic collection and the chapel is amazing. Wish we had more time to spend there. Bonus was that the museum was free during the period we visited - would have been happy to pay and would defintely return.

For information: No water bottles allowed - you need to leave them outside.

Comprehensive Tiffany collection includes presentation of the designer's personal story. Beautiful building & outstanding gift shop. Don't miss!

This stained glass museum is inspiring. You will see glass and art and function in a new way. It combines the best examples of historical classics by Tiffany in a way that you can see their decorative role and function at the same time.

It is very well set up to guide you at your own pace to admire the beauty of the wide range of glass displays from jewelry to full room displays.

Wow

The Tiffany collection was mind boggling. Docents were very knowledgeable. We spent hours in this museum. You can relax and enjoy looking at the artfully displayed pieces and learn about the process.

This place is amazing! Beautiful stained glass windows and magnificent lamps. So happy that those awesome pieces of art were saved and can now be enjoyed by all.
We were sad we didn't get to have a tour with one of the amazing volunteers, we just overhead the end of one tour...and it seemed great!
The chapel is truly breathtaking! My mother was so moved that she cried...

Large collection of Tiffany glass, lamps, jewelry, stained glass, art and architectural pieces from the artist's home. Beautiful way to spend several hours.

Museum a “must see” place while in Winter Park.

After casual appreciation of glass works you will be In upscale gift shop. I can’t go there without leaving with unique purchase.

You May visit gift shop without paying fee to go through museum.

A fine little museum in an attractive township. Plenty of parking, a friendly welcome at the ticket desk and an amazing collection of the works of the Tiffany studio, some of which would have been lost forever but for the intervention of the museum’s founder. A small collection of other artwork, some fine works among them but Tiffany is the attraction here and well worth a trip. Ridiculously good value.

We’ve been trying to do here for ten years and finally had time to go. Wish we’d gone sooner because we all want to go back!! The $6.00 admission price is a bargin and well worth it. Absolutely fabulous selection of Tiffany glass, jewelry and art work. Pictures do not show the true colors as they are in person! Highly recommend. Parking was easy and free. Staff were friendly and helpful.

This small museum is a treasure in Winter Park and it captivated us during our recent visit. Well planned and presented is also a peaceful oasis once you walk inside. The Tiffany collection is outstanding and did not disappoint. Have lunch at one of the many eateries on Park Avenue and end your day at the Morse. It will be worth the time.

While in the Orlando area four of us drove to Winter Park to visit the Morse Museum. Admission is only $6 adults, $5 seniors over 60, and $1 students. If you like Tiffany, Art Deco and art nouveau, you will enjoy your visit. All of us were pleasantly impressed and enjoyed our visit. We spent about 2 hours here.

Best museum I have ever been to. Outstanding collection of Tiffany Glass. Loved the write ups in eacg room plus the videos detailing the history.. Highly recommend.

This museum features American art. But its real claim to fame is that it is home to the world's largest Tiffany collection. A whole wing is devoted to Tiffany's paintings and glass work. AND the museum has the chapel built for the Columbian Exposition. Amazing! (Note: Admission is about $6 -- cheaper for children and seniors. And on certain days, it is free for all. Appointments are necessary.)

This art collection is over the top beautiful - what can one say?
If you like TIFFANY you are in for a treat and " go to church " while
You peruse the art in the edifice.

I was surprised again by this museum. We have visited many in the USA and Europe and this was a surprise. It is very well done and thus enjoyable. (our daughter has a MS in museum studies and she was impressed).

Even if you don’t appreciate the genius of Tiffany’s work,
this museum is well worth a visit. Much of this stuff could have been lost to history. Figure about 2 hours minimum.
Free admission Friday 4 to 8 PM. Even if you pay the price of admission it is very reasonable.

The Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art is a superb smaller museum that's a little off-the-map.

It has one of the largest (if not the largest) collections of Tiffany objects.

The Tiffany chapel is the masterpiece.

For $6, it was a bargain to enter. The perfect activity for a rainy day.

My only complaints? Parking is a little bit of an issue. It would also be nice if there was a nice restaurant at the museum.

My husband and I called the museum to be sure they were open. The recording stated the hours and days. We drove for one and a half hours to get there. The museum was closed.

I can understand that it can be hard to get the word out to all sites were information is posted about schedules. This was their OWN phone number!! We were really upset. COVID-19 has been a reality for a full year. Fix your recording! We were highly disappointed.

Don't rely on anything you read or on the museum's own phone messages. Speak to a live human being before showing up.

This is one of the gems of the art world. Spending four or five hours here is easily done. The size is modest, but so much detail to be taken in and gone back to for another look. Then a look from distance is needed, to really see how the art how works. The Tiffany Collection is the star, numerous windows, lamps, but also details on the factory and how it was all made and by so many craftsmen. Then there is The Chapel, restored from the burned wreckage of a home. It is just beautiful, and having the opportunity to walk around and see it from so many differing angles, just amazes. Worth your morning and afternoon, reentry is permitted, go have lunch and come back to see it again or finish what is left.

Absolutely awesome place to visit. The Tiffany displays are so beautiful. I did not know how talented Louis Charles Tiffany was. His drawings and ideas were over the top.

Located right in the heart of Winter Park's Park avenue shopping area, the Morse Museum is a treasure of Louis Comfort Tiffany's art and leaded glass works. Once a year the Museum shows off numerous leaded stain glass windows during an outdoor concert in Central Park. The highlight of the museum is the Chapel he designed for the World Columbian Exhibition in 1893. It is a stunning showcase of mosaic tile work and stained glass.

The Charles Hosmer Morse Museum is a museum focused on Tiffany's art, windows, lamps, jewelry and more. This is a museum dedicated to beauty and how beauty can effect life. This was my favorite activity in Orlando a must visit.

If you enjoy Louis Comfort Tiffany's work, this is the museum for you! Fabulous private collection, much acquired when Tiffany's Long Island country home fell to ruin and everything was sold. Vases, windows (including Tree of Life), panels, jewelry, his chapel, and lamps abound -- most Tiffany's, some his contemporaries. Brochures for each room outlined the items or, if you prefer, there was a QR code to access two free audio tours for your smart phone. Six dollar adult entry fee. Limited parking, a nice museum store, and a location by lots of fun shops and restaurants. It took about 1.5 hours to tour everything, and I'm a slow patron that reads much of the signage. 15 minute drive from downtown Orlando and close to the Harry Leu gardens and Museum of Art in Winter Park. Well worth it.

What an amazing museum to visit!
It holds the largest Tiffany collection which is simply amazing.
There is a very interesting display about the secrets of glassmaking .
A ticket costs 8$ per adult.
Highly recommended !

A few years ago I read the book "Clara and Mr. Tiffany". This story introduced me to the story of developing Tiffany glass and the beautiful designs created by the Tiffany Company. This February were fortunate to visit Winter Park, FL and have the entire day to visit this wonderful museum.
Once you have the ticket you can come and go through out the day. We took a break at lunch and drove around Winter Park a bit before returning to finish our visit. The exhibits are really worth a visit. There's also information about the people that rescued pieces from the home in New York and helped create this lovely Museum. The guides there are very helpful and if they couldn't answer our questions they took the time to look things up for us.

This was a fun surprise to find. The little down town area it's in was adorable, and the museum itself is thoughtfully laid out, with plenty of information about Tiffany as well as the Morse family. I highly reccomend it! Beautiful glass, pottery, artwork. Great history!

The best collection of Tiffany arts and crafts I have seen. Great staff, great ambience and art that will knock your socks off. Just the right size for a two-hour visit to enjoy the entire collection and special exhibits. We visit the Morse every time that we're anywhere near Orlando, and it never gets old. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Beyond doubt the finest medium sized museum I have visited. It contains the World’s largest collection of Louis Comfort Tiffany items, including the entire chapel he made for the Chicago World’s Fair. $5 entry fee for seniors includes a detailed cellphone tour. If you anywhere near Winter Park (e.g., Orlando) you owe it to yourself to visit.

El museo Charles Hosmer Morse, de arte americano, en Winter Park, cerca de Orlando, Florida, contiene la más completa colección de la obra de Louis Comfort Tiffany, que incluye la espléndida Capilla Tiffany, una verdadera joya del arte decorativo americano. Tiffany fue un multifacético artista, que descolló en una época singular del arte americano. El museo está muy bien montado, y es a la vez instructivo y agradable de ver. La relación entre la calidad de la oferta del museo, y el precio de la entrada es muy favorable para el visitante. Una mención especial y sobresaliente para el personal que labora allí, quienes, en todos los casos, y en todo momento fueron profesionales, corteses, amables y colaboraron para una agradable y fructífera visita. Un pequeño ejemplo: cuando entramos se percataron de que llevábamos un bebé, y de inmediato ofrecieron, y buscaron un cochecillo, en calidad de préstamo, para hacer el recorrido más cómodo para todos.

Tiffany was a multifaceted artist, who discovered a unique era of American art. The museum is very well assembled, and it is both instructive and pleasant to see. The relationship between the quality of the museum's offer and the price of admission is very favorable for the visitor. A special and outstanding mention for the staff that works there, who, in all cases, and at all times was professional, courteous, friendly and collaborated for a pleasant and fruitful visit. A small example: when we entered, they noticed that we were carrying a baby, and immediately offered, and looked for a stroller, as a loan, to make the journey more comfortable for everyone.

Visit the quaint tourist destination of Winter Park, Florida just north of Orlando. After the Saturday Market and a stroll through the streets we walked into the cool, darkness of this lovely museum. $5 admission. After Tiffany ‘s Oyster Bay home was gutted by fire, a former student & his wife went to save what they could of Tiffany glass. Some enterprising neighbors had stacked some windows in the separate chapel that had been designed for the Chicago World’s Fair of 1893. Now, this museum has the biggest collection of Tiffany Glass.
Besides the chapel, the Tiffany dining room with carpet to match the overhead light fixture is featured. And the Daffodil plinth atop the columns of the outdoor pergola.
The museum highlights handmade objects of the Arts and Crafts Period.
Be sure to ask the docent any questions: she is a fountain of knowledge. Louis Comfort Tiffany was the son of jewellery maker ( think BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY ‘S).
His son was a painter first but couldn’t compete with the American Impressionists of his time. He used the Chicago World ‘s Fair to highlight his talent in stained glass. However, in time his talent was forgotten and you could pick up a Tiffany lamp shade for a few dollars. Which is how the museum first got its specimens until the fire at Oyster Bay. The curator paid the garbage men NOT to take the glass to the dump. The Collection book in the 1960’s raised Tiffany to the pedestal he deserves.
Enjoy!

Another fantastic museum in Florida! Exquisite Tiffany glass and sculptures. Everything from conception to construction is detailed in the displays. A stunning array of art nouveau and folk art as well. Your Veteran ID will get you a discount of 5.00 for entering this worthwhile attraction! Take the time to go! You won’t be disappointed. A treasure in Winter Park Florida!

A must-do for anyone visiting Orlando who is even slightly interested in decorative arts and Tiffany's work. Beautifully laid out. See the other reviews for some of the great things to see - there is much more than just the big collection of Tiffany's work. To recent reviews, I will add two things: 1) Besides all the decorative artworks, the museum houses mini-reconstructions of three of the rooms in Louis TIffany's HUGE house on Long Island that burned down in 1957 - thanks to the McKean family who saved as much as they could. 2) In each gallery, there is a pile of printed pamphlets that explain all the works in that gallery, which you can keep or return to the pile once you have finished looking at that gallery - very intelligent way to present the information. Surprised that one reviewer said you can see it all in an hour - good luck with that.

Exquisite collection of Tiffany glass, ceramics, lamps, and American Art from various artists! The museum is lovely, lots of space, comfortable, and inviting. The gift shop is really well put together and has a lot of variety. It was a great way to spend two hours.

My brother treated me to a day in Winter Park last August 2018 and I totally enjoyed touring the Morse museum. Viewing all the works of Louis C Tiffany not only his glass works but his paintwd works of art was awesome. Beauiful collection of work and his life story.

We visited here two years ago and wanted to go back to see the Tiffany works of art. Not much changed but it was still a thrill to see all of the stained glass, jewelry and other works of art from the Tiffany collection. It's not a huge place but allow between 1 and 2 hours to browse the collection. Non-flash photos are allowed. Limited free parking in the rear. Note: ignore the big banner and door on North Park Avenue; the entrance is in the rear by the parking area. Also, due to Covid restrictions, they are using timed admissions to limit crowding so you MUST call ahead for an appointment time. Admission fee charged

If you enjoy Tiffany lamps and stained glass windows, this stop is a must. Gorgeous displays and friendly knowledgeable staff. The colors of the various pieces were so beautiful! Exhibits about Mr. Tiffany’s history were also interesting. Be sure to check out the gift shop as you leave.

This museum in beautiful Winter Park is a real gem for anyone interested in the decorative arts of late 19th century and early 20th century America. And in particular for fans of the life,times and glassworks of Louis Comfort Tiffany.
The Morse claims to possess the most comprehensive collection of Tiffany works and for lovers of all things Tiffany it shouldn't fail to impress. Besides the trademark Tiffany lamps they have beautiful stained glass and recreations of some of the rooms of Laurelton Hall which was Tiffany's long gone estate on Long Island. Definitely the jewel in the crown of things to see and do while in Winter Park!

Spent a delightful few hours touring this lovely Museum. I have always loved stained glass and any type of glass art. So the works of Tiffany & Co. have always appealed to me. This museum has a lovely display of some Tiffany lamps and many pieces of stained glass work that were once in their Long Island estate. It also includes the Chapel that was created for a World's Fair, and a gallery of paintings that were very enjoyable. We were able to view the entire Museum in under 3 hours while taking our time. So glad I chose to make the drive North to Winter Park and visit here. It is wonderful.

So many great paintings with stained glass and metalwork not to mention historical furniture as well as a few sculptures.

Great collection of works by American artist and designer Louis Comfort Tiffany."
Maybe entrance is still free 4:00 pm–8:00 pm Fridays

This is a museum dedicated to tiffany glass and art work. There is limited free parking in the back. There was a free guided tour at 2:30 the day we were there which was Thurs. The place is filled with beautiful stained glass, lamps, vases, artwork, etc. The staff is very friendly and helpful. There is a gift shop.

Everyone should visit this wonderful experience about Tiffany’s life, works and accomplishments. A unique trip through time and era.

We loved it so much, we went twice! Words cannot describe the beauty of this museum.
You just have to go if you are in Winter Park. There are rooms from Louis Tiffany’s home but the most magnificent thing is the chapel. It takes your breath away.

There is really a lot to see in this museum. Make sure to watch the two videos. The collection is immense. If you are into Arts & Crafts period the furniture and glass is amazing. Enjoy the visit.

There's really some lovely stuff in here - even if your brain conjures only 'lamps, yawn' when you hear Tiffany - you need to come take a look. So much more to the man and his art. Not only that, the Morse gives a nice history lesson as well. But - the glass, wow. Seeing the windows people commissioned for their homes and public spaces, just stunning. If you leave without spontaneous explanations of wonder, you have no appreciation for beauty. Atmosphere is calming, crowd respectful, this is good PBS TV come to life. Visited Friday after 4 when price is FREE, and they had a string trio playing from the musician's gallery starting possibly at 6 - don't remember exact time. Perfect accompaniment.

I love visiting this wonderful museum highlighting Tiffany. Last week I attending their lecture series. The lecture room was perfect, comfortable and intimate for this type of lecture. The museum as always never disappoints. Personnel are attentive, knowledgeable and professional. I can't wait to return!

This is not a huge art exhibition site...which makes it a fairly quick tour. There are several exhibits to see, but the accent is on the work of Louis Comfort Tiffany. The Tiffany works are superb, and the docents are unusually knowledgeable. One of their other highlighted exhibits is a Christian chapel with a long history and a fantastic assembly of traditional pieces plus a host of mosaic tiles and the most dramatic overheard multi-dimensional cross. It is well worth your time and only a few dollars.

So much to see - glass, vases, lamps, paintings and a wonderful chapel saved by the Hosmer family - A must see when in or near Winter Park
Free on Friday nights!

At $5 for the day this is has got to be the cheapest thing to do in Winter Park or Orlando for that matter. The museum has the best Tiffany collection in the world, and you can start exploring at 9:00 AM, take a break and walk a block or two to a hundred sidewalk cafes for lunch, and then come back and spend the rest of the day picking up where you left off, and then again return to the many wonderful dining establishments on Park Avenue.

If you want to avoid the I-4 mess or the difficulty parking, take Sun Rail and walk the two blocks to the museum, dine afterward and then take the Sun Rail back to where you parked your car.

This fine museum will bring you back again and again because of its charm, coziness and of course the many attractions that are so beautifully displayed.

We went here on a rainy day. It is an amazing museum mainly dedicated to Tiffany glass from the late 19th and early 20th century. The staff were extremely helpful and knowledgeable, the written guides for each room were excellent. There is ample free parking. Entrance fees are very reasonable. Over 60s pay just $5!

The Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art in Winter Park Florida was the highlight of our last Florida getaway. A comprehensive collection of Louis Comfort Tiffany pieces. We had never heard of this place before this trip. Absolutely beautiful experience. Would highly recommend spending an afternoon here and take your time. The Winter Park downtown area is a wonderful place for a treat at one of the shops nearby after the museum.

The museum displayed the Tiffany works so effectively so that viewing was at an optimal level. Words can't describe the beautiful of Tiffany's works. Perhaps to say that they are mostly jaw dropping might be a way to describe it. Many thanks to the Charles Hosmer family for preserving the largest collection of Tiffany's works.

What an extraordinary experience. The design and layout of this museum for the Tiffany collection is superb! All of the staff were so friendly and helpful. You could tell that they were very excited about the collection and wanted to share it with the visitors. The collection itself was amazing and extensive! For only $6 to get in, it is well worth it and deserves a little extra as a donation. Although it's not off the beaten path I think it is not on the tourist list which makes it a bit of a hidden gem.

Very small museum. Easy to see everything. Beautiful collection of Tiffany glass as well as other 19th and 20th century art. The museum is located in a busy shopping area with lots of restaurants and interesting stores, so if you are driving any distance you can make a nice day of it.

Beautifully designed museum, primarily to showcase the work of Louis Comfort Tiffany. Highly recommend, mostly for adults. Also the town of Winter Park is charming and upscale. Fun to wander and browse. The close by lake boat tour made for a wonderful day.

I am a travel agent and I was with a group for a tour. In the USA there is not much culture but this museum is wonderful. Don't be very big and in two hours be able to see it. Internally the furnishings are very elegant and comfortable. The museum be full of ceramics but the most beautiful thing is the numerous colored and decorated glasses. It is also located in a lovely neighborhood of Orlando called: Little Europe with many characteristic shops, a beautiful park and several places to eat.

Loved seeing all the fine art and the work to make different pieces. Wonderful way to relax and enjoy the afternoon

Gem of a museum right in heart of Winter Park. It was bigger and better than we expected. The gift shop staff was very helpful as were the Docents.

I can't say enough good things about this museum. The displays are simply wonderful-- the Tiffany pieces are stunning. The exhibits are extensive and the staff is most helpful. It is so worth the modest entrance fee. Even the gift shop is top notch. And to be within walking distance of some fine restaurants is just icing on the cake. Go!

What a wonderful museum and for a $6 entrance fee it’s a bargain. Beautiful stained glass works by Tiffany. You won’t be sorry you went.

This was my third visit to this fabulous collection of Tiffany glass lamps and murals. They say it is the largest collection in the country. What I like the most about the museum is it size. While it may be the largest collection, it is concentrated so the museum can be viewed in a leisurely two hours. On one trip I took a tour and the docent was excellent. I was particularly interested in the fact that Tiffany had a cadre of women designers--particularly Clara Driscoll who it seems designed quite a few of his most popular lamps including the Dragonfly lamp.

I highly recommend the museum and the town of Winter Park in general. Just outside the museum's doors are scores of fine restaurants and a lovely park in which to stroll. Also save some time to visit the museum's gift shop. I've purchased many gifts for myself and friends over the years. Enjoy.

Cool museum! Worth a couple of hours for sure.

The vast majority of the collection focuses on Louis Comfort Tiffany, the American artist and designer. Interspersed with the art are a lot of details about his life and biography.

There's a neat array of works. These include lots of Tiffany windows (of many scenes and styles), vases, Tiffany lamps, and other decorative items.

A showstopper is the Tiffany chapel, first unveiled at the Chicago World's Fair. It has gorgeous mosaic work and windows. The accompanying film and exhibits on its history are really interesting.

There are also some recreated rooms from Tiffany's mansion on Long Island. These are beautiful and show his work well. I appreciated the accompanying context.

There's also a separate gallery (small) on letter-writing. I enjoyed it!

A nice gift shop, too.

Admission, at $6, is affordable. Totally worth the price!

This is a terrific museum. It has the largest collection of Tiffany glass in the world, beautifully displayed. Who knew so much beautiful art and architecture could be made from glass? ! We were first directed to view the two 12- minute introduction videos, and were glad we did. The videos helped us appreciate and understand the galleries we wandered through, especially the museum’s centerpiece: the Tiffany “chapel” created out of thousands of pieces of colored glass for the World’s Columbia Exposition in Chicago in 1893, and later moved to Tiffany’s Long Island estate where it was abandoned and nearly destroyed in a fire. It was eventually brought down to Winter Park and painstakingly restored and re-built in this museum. It is absolutely stunning!

A two-hour visit to this beautiful and interesting museum was the right amount of time for us.

The Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art is an absolute treasure. Their incredible collection of Tiffany and other art glass is stunning, the section on rescuing some of Tiffany's work from his mansion on Long Island that sadly burned, even the gift shop! were all top notch. Most of all, the staff was incredible. Informative, enthusiastic, welcoming, generous with their knowledge and justifiably proud of the collection they steward. The museum is a rich and complete experience, with films explaining how the collection came to be; and the beautiful chapel is a highlight. Winter Park is also lovely to visit. Could not recommend this museum more!

The whole idea of an old-fashioned stuffy museum can put people off. The Morse is different in many ways. First, it isn't just paintings, though there are many of those. It has pottery, jewelry, beautiful leaded glass art and windows (Tiffany Lamps!), and much more. My favorite is a gorgeous chapel where you can sit and admire beautiful mosaics and glass and watch how variations in interior lighting change its feel. The variation in types of art and the overall relatively modest scale make the Morse a stimulating but not intimidating place to visit. There are also some exhibits that show how the glass is made ("Secrets of Tiffany Glassmaking").

This is another Winter Park hidden gem. Beautiful Tiffany pieces of the most extra-ordinary scale and variety including a replica of some of his original New York home. Polite and helpful staff, exceptional value with low-cost admission, free parking right next door, gift shop with exceptionally high-quality items available at reasonable cost. A great alternative to the usual tourist attractions in Orlando, well worth making this a part of a day in Winter Park

The beauty and treasures inside the Morse Museum far exceeded my expectations. Well worth a visit for a first or even a second time.

The Tiffany exhibit at the Morse Museum is the ultimate eye candy! Actually, the entire museum is amazing, but I'm an art glass aficionado! Very inexpensive considering the extent if the collection. I've visited multiple times and will visit again.

What a walk into history where everything is beautiful and the stained glass is out of this world. A truly gorgeous experience.

Fascinating museum that's worth the journey to Winter Park all on its own. Magnificent collection of works by Louis Comfort Tiffany.

Highly recommend for adults and something different from the theme parks. Largest collection of Tiffany glass, art and historical information on Tiffany and family. Other artists also displayed. Really enjoyed the day and spent four hours when we had to leave due to prior commitment. We could have easily spent another hour there.

For $5, we were able to see the Morse Museum located in Winter Park. There were 2 short film that told about the history of the museum. These films should be seen first. Then you can wander through the museum to see the extraordinary items. There is also a gift shop at the end of your tour. Don't forget to look up in the gift shop: Beautiful umbrellas hang from the ceiling

World's largest collection of Louis Comfort Tiffany glass, pottery, and architecture. Also has an interesting collection of American art by others. Would highly recommend.

Fabulous collection of Tiffany and other artists stained glass - so beautiful and informative and for only $5! Easy to find with parking available and with your admission fee you can go in and out all day so with all the restaurants nearby you can have a nice lunch and then go back in for more viewing. The cobbled streets and picturesque neighborhood add to the lovely ambience. My photos turned out stunning (cannot use flash) and the philanthropy of the family will inspire you to also want to save the beauty in our world.

Made a stop here before our dinner reservations in Winter Park. The Tiffany collection is beautiful and the story behind the collection is worth the short video before touring the museum. Nice jazz quartet playing while we were there.

I think this is a gem of a museum in Winter Park, Florida. It showcases Tiffany’s stained glass pieces, vases, lamps, and even a large chapel. Just the right size if your husband doesn’t want to spend hours in a museum.

A lovely gallery with some outstanding works by Tiffany. The video gives you background on Tiffany and how the collection was preserved.

Really enjoyed my experience here. Was so surprised how big the museum was for the price! Really interesting collection

Beautiful museum with an enormous collection of Louis Comfort Tiffany stained glass windows and lamps. And it's air-conditioned, which is a huge plus if you're visiting the Orlando area in the summertime..

This is an exceptional museum, and if your not familiar with Tiffany Glass (who has not heard about this), then this collection is a real treat. During select major holidays, the museum opens to the public free of charge, otherwise the entry fee is very reasonable. Excellent museum gift shop. On Friday's there is chamber music offered. There is always something for the community and it sows how this museum gives back to the community.

Such a beautiful museum with an interesting story. We started by watching the introductory video. It helped us understand the background of the museum and the source of the variety of beautiful objects. Very much worth the hour and 45 minutes we spent at the museum. Seniors entry is just $5.

This is a small museum with an expansive collection of Tiffany glass art. Easy to go through in an afternoon at your own pace.

A hidden gem that sparkles like crystal in the Florida sun. Wife and I went there not expecting much and we were overwhelmed. Amazing displays of Tiffany works and history. well worth the trip. Only comment would be to provide more documentation regarding the exhibits. But just viewing the displays were joy enough

This museum has the largest collection of Tiffany glass and it was impressive. This is not to be missed.

Although it is a museum of American Art - I would estimate that approx 90% of it is Tiffany. I would not have known that if I hadn’t been told by a friend who lives in the area. I am a big fan of Tiffany. What an amazing collection. Not only is it the lamps that many folks associate with Tiffany, it also large windows and other pieces. There are sections of Tiffany’s actual home with stained glass structures and embellishments. The most amazing Tiffany piece by far (in my opinion) - the Chapel that was built for the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair. My husband and I spent over 2 hours at the museum and could have spent more time if we read everything ! Luckily there are small pamphlets in each of the exhibit halls that explain the pieces, and I took photographs of the large framed placards that explain the exhibited piece along with Tiffany’s life.

In our ugly culture this museum stands out as a gentle joy. Don't expect electronics or blaring music. Go to enjoy the subtleties of light and the enduring works from the hands of artists whose talents became evident through technique.

You have to crawl through the traffic and navigate crowded roads to get there, but it is worth the effort!

We had such a great time viewing all the work at this museum. I was stunned several times in different parts of the museum. We were here on a Sunday afternoon and was able to have the most wonderful conversation with one of the volunteers. She showed me several pieces of art and pointed out details that I never would have known to look for without her assistance. This was a great surprise!

My favorite spots were the replica of the Tiffany residence and the Chapel. Several pieces from this home were stunning and it sat there for 10 minutes looking at the details of the front door alone. The Chapel is breathtaking!

Another great thing is the cost of this museum makes it very affordable. Our family of 4 was able to get in for just $13 total. What a great value!

Finally, a visit to this museum gets you into Winter Park, which is such a great spot in town. There are plenty of shops and restaurants to keep you busy for another half of the day. Go eat at Bosphorus because it’s amazing and just a few steps away.

We’ve lived in the Orlando area for nearly 17 years and this is our first visit to the Morse Museum. It was midweek and traffic was surprisingly light. We had no problem finding free street parking just down the street from the museum entrance. We had purchased tickets in advance so entering the museum was a “no contact” experience. The Tiffany exhibits were beautiful, the setting cool, quiet, and tranquil. We particularly enjoyed the chapel and the hall of stained glass windows and panels. We spent about an hour and 45 minutes browsing leisurely. Easy to social distance in the various galleries. We learned so much about Louis Comfort Tiffany and developed a new appreciation for his art. The staff was friendly, courteous, and helpful. The admission of $5.00 is a bargain. We ended our afternoon with a sun filled stroll down Park Avenue in Winter Park. The Morse Museum is definitely worth a visit.

There was much care taken for the safety of the quests. There was timed entrance and sanitizing stations about and no one was allowed to sit within the museum. It is a exceptional collection of Tiffany windows and decorative objects. The manner of display and the rooms with certain emphasis allow the guest to become truly experience the art displays. It is a memorable experience.

We try to visit here at least once a year.
This year we were fortunate to have our pilgrimage enhanced by live harp & flute music.
The numerous glowing reviews of this museum are more than justified. The design, beauty, and creativity assembled/nurtured here is beyond words. At least for us, we return here for the aesthetic uplift that an immersion into such achievement can provide. It can sometimes soothe the spirit, that despite the constant evidence to the contrary, the human potential for creating the wonderous continues to survive. This establishment is a grand caretaker of that ideal.
This is definitely one of those "must see" destinations, if one is anywhere near the area.

It was raining in Orlando and we needed something to do. We saw a small ad for the museum in an Orlando travel magazine and figured, "Why not?" What a fantastic gem of a museum!!! We were there for almost 3 hours and I could have stayed longer if my feet would have held out. I'm so thankful that the founders were wise enough to gather together so many pieces of Tiffany's work and then display them so beautifully. It was a wonderful opportunity to learn about the artist and see his work up close. The chapel was by far my favorite. Hoping for a chance to revisit in the future.

Winter Park is also, I believe, a gift from Morse and a charming public square, now with the crown jewel of the Morse Museum. It’s small but very well done and is all Louis Comfort Tiffany. The re-creation of Laurelton Hall, his Long Island home, is without equal. Instead of labels next to objects of art, each gallery has a pamphlet describing them.

This was a wonderful tour through the work of Louis Comfort Tiffany, as collected and restored by his extended family. It showed their respect and admiration for his artistry, and the presentation is exquisite. As said in other reviews, the entry fee is so low as to lower expectations for the experience; and parking was free. We visited here about 12 years ago, when the museum was still assembling its displays, and promised ourselves to return at some point. It was definitely worth it.

The Morse Museum houses the largest private collection of Tiffany glass in the country - possibly the world. Any visit to central Florida needs to include a day spent here, away from the tourist zone, to see something that truly will educate, awe and inspire. Don't miss spending a day at this brilliant museum.

The Morse Museum has one of the largest collections of Tiffany Glass in the world. Do not miss the two short films that will give you a sense of who he was and how the collection came to Winter Park. The stained glass is unbelievable. They are back lit which shows their vibrant colors and the minute detail of the glass. You can get so close to them that you can inspect the intricate pieces that make up each piece. A wonderful place to go!

The Morse Museum is a jewel of a museum in beautiful Winter Park! It is THE Tiffany Museum. Your senses will be tantalized by the beauty of the works of art and the amount of information you'll find. Treat yourself to a tranquil and delightful visit, you'll be surprised. It is truly beautiful!
The only thing that tainted our visit was that after being in the Museum Shop for about 15 minutes, we already had picked up two rings, a scarf and some other memorabilia, the store's manager told us in a very abrupt and inconsiderate way (she pulled a scarf I was holding from my hands in an abrupt manner) that they were about to close and wouldn't ring up the merchandise. We were astounded and had to leave without being able to buy anything. It was a pity, we wanted to contribute with our purchase to the Museum.

Very well laid out and wow - much bigger than it appears from the outside.
I would like to see more art from others -but overall, a great place to stroll thru nd be awed by the works.

Worth every penny.

This place is stellar. Louis Comfort Tiffany designed my grandmother’s engagement ring in 1905. I have the ring and after seeing his world, the glass, house and art I have a new appreciation of the heirloom. The reproduced outdoor hall, is a great place to bring a book and hang out between exhibits.

This was a lovely hidden gem, although I am sure it is well known locally. After 4 p.m. on a Friday admission is free. The staff was very kind and suggested we watch the introductory films prior to signing in so that we could get free admission! There were two films and they were quite interesting and well done. The collection of Tiffany glass is extraordinary. There are not only lamps and vases but exquisite panes of glass from the size of a wall to the size of a window depicting flowers, animals and women in glorious gradients of color. There are also rooms of Tiffany’s estate that were salvaged and recreated in the museum. Each gallery room has free and detailed pamphlets, plus there is a free cell phone based audio guide. No backpacks, but I was able to carry a small purse sized backpack without question (I held it in my hand instead of on my back).

If you are a fan of Louis Tiffany’s work, this is a must see. It only cost $12.00 for two to get in, and there is an impressive variety of vases, lamps, windows, and architectural elements to admire. Helpful literature is available at each gallery to help you understand better what you are seeing, and there’s a cell phone audio tour option. Don’t miss the Chapel…gorgeous!

After several visits here, our return feels more akin to a pilgrimage than a trip.
Seeing the artistry and beauty assembled here is such an aesthetic uplift, it touches the soul.
Previous reviews use words like amazing, incredible, magnificent, etc. and justifiably so.
There is also the reality, however, that no words can do justice to the experience of viewing and being immersed in this creativity.
This is one of those "must experience oneself" places.

If you are at all interested in Tiffany, this is the place to visit. Probably the largest collection of Louis Comfort Tiffany memorabilia in the world.

It is almost solely devoted to Tiffany. If that doesn't tickle your fancy, it is not for you. If you like Tiffany, you'll be in heaven. It is well laid out with good informative material. There are no labels and you have to look information up on handouts in each room. There is a good audio tour as well, which I did't use much, since my friend, who is not a big fan, got bored.

What a wonderful place to visit. If you love stained glass and American pottery this is a must visit. The main focus is on Louis Comfort Tiffany and what he designed and made. There are a number of rooms dedicated to his art work. Extra exhibits include various pottery pieces. This visit there was a large exhibit of Rookwood pottery. The staff is friendly and helpful. there is information pamphlets in each room to tell you what you are looking at. The gift shop is very dangerous and has beautiful pieces for purchase.

The Morse Museum allows visitors to become immersed in the Tiffany (and other early century) art and displays. It is evident there was time and thought put into the Tiffany collection, and it doesn't disappoint. The history is quite interesting and the walk-through is enlightening. Great job, great spot away near Orlando. Don't miss this gem!

A few days ago,I spent six delightful hours enjoying the splendid glass creations of Louis Comfort Tiffany and his Studio.I was very impressed with the leaded stainglass windows on display at this museum produced by Louis Comfort Tiffany and his Studio such as;"The Tree of Life","Aurora",and "Madonna and Christ Child With Angels",among others.I appreciated the restored "Chapel",originally produced for the Columbian World Exposition in Chicago in 1893,especially the "Chapel's leaded stainglass windows,electrified chandelier,Baptismal Font,and glass mosaic encrusted columns.I also saw a splendid array of lamps,vases,and transoms produced by Tiffany and his Studio.
At the Morse Museum of American Art,I saw fine 19th Century American oil paintings by Thomas Sully("Eliza Tiffany"),John Chapman,Worthington Whittredge("Old Time Walk"),George Cochrane Lambdin("Callia Lillies"),Frederic Church("Cyrus",Church's beloved cat),Albert Bierstadt("View of Hudson at Irvington"),Joseph Decker("Cherries")and William Oscar Roelecke("Vegetables on White Tablecloth"),among others.I also relished 20th Century Painter,Maxfield Parrish's"Dinkybird".I saw fine bronze creations by Thomas Eakins at this museum such as;"Arcadia"and "Doctor Benjamin Rush".
This art museum has a charming atmosphere and an efficient curatorial staff. I hope you enjoy this art museum as much as I did.

Wow!!! Get ready to have an experience equivalent to a trip to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, if you are interested in Tiffany's works of art, just in Florida! In fact, the Tiffany exhibit you will fawn over is the largest Tiffany collection in the world!

There is so much to see, absorb and relish for its beauty and artistry, I would recommend seeing part of the museum and then setting out for a while to process the beauty you've just witnessed, to lunch, and then returning to enjoy the rest of the museum.

Our only disappointment is there were no scheduled tours. Maybe they can schedule a docent oncew a day?

Fairly large museum. Collection of Tiffany lamps, windows and other vases, art, etc. Entry fee was only five dollars for seniors. Not recommended for kids unless they like lamps and vases. Took about two hours to go through the whole museum. Well worth it. Located very near restaurants, shops.

I have lived here for 40 years and never visited this wonderful museum in Winter Park. It is worth a visit. There is a nice display of Tiffany glass but also other artists too. I went with my teenage daughter and she enjoyed it too. Make a day of it with lunch in Winter Park as you window shop.

Recently visited this venue. The displays and exhibits were excellent. What spoiled my visit was their in your face, literally, approach to COVID. When we entered the building we were asked to “Sanitize our hands”. The lady checking us in didn’t wear a mask, but yet I was told to “cover my nose”. Perhaps the facility needs to be reported for CDC violations. We were then harassed in every room to raise the mask. I explained that I was tested and vaccinate,x2,, to no avail. The final straw was the Gift Shop. I was in a buying mood but told that I had to “Sanitize” again.
I informed them this wasn’t happening and walked out. This event , plus having to wear a mask outside in Winter Park caused me to cut my trip short and return to the sanity of Clearwater Beach. I don’t need to be harassed while supporting their local economy. Several of my neighbors have been considering visiting the museum, but I have prepped them for what lies ahead.

A lovely collection of Tiffany and other art glass. You MUST attend the windows in the park at Christmas where they roll out amazing stain glass windows for the Christmas concert. It's a lovely small museum that is PERFECT in their displays and collections. Class act. We've been here many times. I think they have one free Friday a month for people o attend. Check their website for dates if budget is a concern.

My favorite place in Winter Park, I completely agree with its #1 attraction rating, and those who say they could go again and again. The world's largest collection of Louis Tiffany's work. It's also the most economical museum I've ever visited ($6, $5 for 60+). I had no idea how much more art Tiffany produced than stained glass. If you enjoy reading and looking every gallery, allow several hours to take it all in.
The parking lot is very small (but free), so be there when it opens to not have to search for street parking or other lots nearby. Wonderful staff--take their suggestion to see the short introductory film first. Read the excellent museum website carefully for these and other details. Other favorite Winter Park sights and economical eatieries: Scenic Boat Tour, Rollins College, Park Avenue, Gideon's Bakehouse, The Glass Knife, Canopy Cafe, Hunger Street Tacos. Within driving distance is also Wondermade (gourmet marshmallows) in charming downtown Sanford, FL, and Mon Delice, an authentic French bakery in New Smyrna Beach. Check out Deland, FL much to do there as well

Great place to take your date if you want to impress her with your winter park sophistication. Nice place to go before dinner on park Ave.

A good collection of glass art masterpieces including chandeliers, stained glasses, paintings and more, set in the recreation of the artist's living quarters. The area surrounding the museums is very walkable, lined with boutiques and bistros.

Third or fourth visit in 4 yrs - each is enjoyable, interesting and unusual. This time we brought along a long time friend couple - she paints - we all enjoyed the exhibit, and even had the help of a docent for some of the tour.
Top notch.

I don't know much about Tiffany but this place blew me away. Staff were very friendly and accommodating, photos were allowed in the museum but video was not; even though staff said they will allow me to video inside the museum when I asked while buying tickets I felt it was more respectful to just photograph what I found interesting. There wasn't much information about the exhibits, only if you pick up a booklet at the front of each section, I found it a waste of paper because I ended up with a huge stack of booklets.

My favourite section of the museum was the chapel, it was absolutely spectacular. I could sit there all day if I wanted to and when the lights dimmed it became even more magical. The security guard enjoyed the chapel too and was very curious about our accents because they haven't heard any British tourist from Derbyshire/Yorkshire before, we had a great conversation with him.

One small detail in the museum confused me to no end was the fact every single wall was lined with multiple power outlets. I found this hilarious in an odd way because it was unusual and I've never seen anything like it anywhere.

Highly recommend this museum, even if you don't really know about Tiffany, all the exhibits are great to look around. The stained glass is perfect and there is a small parking lot in the back of the building. It's easily accessible for anybody.

Though I must admit I love strolling the streets of Winter Park, a detour to visit the delightful Charles Hosmer Morse Museum is a delightful way to spend a couple of hours surrounded by exquisite Tiffany creations [and is also a nice air conditioned respite].

On the recommendation of a friend who knows I like Tiffany, we visited the Morse Museum to see the world's largest collection of Tiffany works. There are stained glass windows, lamps, vases, paintings, jewelry, home decor and furnishings, and even a chapel. The collection includes pieces rescued from Laurelton Hall (Tiffany's home) following a fire. And all so beautiful to see! Normally we see a few such pieces in a history or art museum, but here it is almost overwhelming. Definitely worth a stop to see and enjoy!!

Talk about hidden gems. This unassuming museum is on the main street in Winter Park, Florida. If you didn't know what it was you might miss it.
But do not drive by without investigating. The largest collection of Tiffany items in the world. All beautifully displayed and shown so all can appreciate the work and devotion that went into them. Plan on spending at least 2-3 hours with your eyes bedazzled by amazing sights.
The chapel with the mosaics is one -of-a-kind and worth many minutes looking at and appreciating. Price of entry is inexpensive and staff is fabulous.

We’ll worth the price of $10.00!! Some very beautiful pieces! Learned a lot about Tiffany lamps with stained glass and about the man who started the business, Louis Comfort Tiffany. Would recommend this place!

Beautiful museum; wonderful displays of Tiffany glass. Excellent gift shop with good selection. Only $5 admission fee.

Amazing - this is a MUST do experience in Winter Park. $5 admission, free parking (we circled full parking garage - and pulled out to find a stop at museum parking. Do not miss the Tiffany chapel - Gorgeous Tiffany glass everywhere we looked. Also art pottery similar to Rookwood.

We visited Florida and the Charles Morse Museum was on our list of places to visit. So happy we were able to visit this wonderful place. The Tiffany exhibit is outstanding. There are many more artists on display. The chapel is the highlight of the museum. Watch the short videos before your start your tour. You won't be disappointed!

This museum has an outstanding collection of Tiffany art work. Be sure to view the two informational videos first that provides a good background of the collection. It is quite large so plan on an hour or two to see everything.

My teen daughter found this museum, and we were glad she did! Very manageable in a couple of hours, the artwork is gorgeous and we enjoyed learning more about Tiffany and his methods. The gift shop is well worth a stop, too. Parking was easy once we figured out where the museum entrance was located.

The Morse Museum is a jewel box of Tiffany artworks. Only a short drive from Orlando and theme park territory and a very worthwhile stop. Don't miss the brief film for an orientation to the museum's founders and how they assembled the Tiffany collection. An audio tour is available for free through your smartphone.

This museum is an absolute gem, located in Winter Park, FL. A long, long time resort from a very different era of Florida's resort time prior to the Southern stretch all the way to Miami. Tiffany's work, home, and incredible pieces are displayed in a easy free moving space. Color and light meet you at every turn. Do not miss this amazing and truly American demonstration of our finest art.

Oh the chapel. Simple but lofty. Small but overwhelming. I loved this gesture God’s greatness. Humbling that one man could produce such a gift of praise With so much extra ordinary scale of skill and talent. If you’ve not seen this go. So much better than Disney or universal studios

The Morse Museum is a treasure filled with beautifully arranged exhibits of Tiffany windows, lamps, and vases as well as other period paintings and artifacts. The chapel, designed and restored by Tiffany, is breathtaking. I loved the descriptions for many of the paintings provided by the first curator (and museum co-founder) Hugh F. McKean. He writes with puckish humor and deep appreciation for the art.

I’m not a big fan of Tiffany’s stained glass. It is frequently dark and heavy, and fails to respond to light. Having said that, the Morse museum has a fabulous collection, displays it well and, most importantly, places it in the context of both Tiffany’s life and the other decorative arts at the time. A welcome relief from the frantic pace of Orlando ‘s theme parks!

What a nice way to spend an hour or two in Winter Park. I never realized how multi-talented Tiffany was. Fairly inexpensive $5 for adults which by Orlando standard is cheap. If you have some time to kill it’s worth the visit.

This is located on the north of downtown Winter Park and to the west of Lake Osceola. Parking can be found on the street (many places are 3-hour open spots) and in a parking garage just south of the building. The building has many parts to it. You enter through the north door along the west side of N Park Avenue. You pay at the counter and are (at this time) required to wear a mask. General admission is $6/person. It is the best deal in the city for what you can see. There are numerous rooms explaining the various types of art that were explored. There are numerous paintings, sculptures, blown glass, stained glass, furniture, jewelry throughout the museum. There are whole rooms recreated to show the beautiful artwork in its original atmosphere: a chapel, a dining room, etc. It is absolutely beautiful. There are numerous places that show how some of the work was created. Once you are done, you exit through the gift shop which has some wonderful products illustrating some of the artwork. Many of the exhibits have a number that can be accessed through a podcast-like app to give you more data on the item. Be careful to keep the volume down or the museum guards will ask you to lower it. I liked this museum so much I would have given it a 5 but for the fact that they require masks. This is an absolute must-see location that I highly recommend for all my fellow travelers.

What a rich treasure of artistic pieces! Seeing everything was breathtaking. The spectrum of colors in the glass pieces was unbelievable! The chapel is amazing. I’m so thankful the admission price is low because it makes me feel I can go back and just sit with some of the items to enjoy them more - I didn’t have to take it all in this time. I loved how they recreated some of Tiffany’s home within the museum.

Never would expect such treasures in this little town. Wonderful treasures from an American artist. Love the history learned about Tiffany and getting to experience such a diverse portfolio of his work.

I love tiffany lamps so when I saw there was a museum of nothing but tiffany glassware I had to go. It was in a place called Winter Park not to get off subject but go there and give yourself a day so much to do and see but anyway I find the museum and the people are extremely nice and helpful and then around the corner it hits you the amazing colors shining through the glass I was in heaven .... there is a chapel do not miss it done by tiffany and the lamps OMG all I can say if this is something that interests you its a must see ...I loved it

The Morse Museum has performed a wonderful job of preserving a number of Tiffany's stained glass treasurers. Many of the pieces are absolutely breath-taking--too beautiful to describe, frankly. I loved Tiffany's chapel from the World's Fair--just breath-taking. If you're in Winter Park, I hope you'll have the opportunity to stop by and experience the beauty of Tiffany's work. It's a once in a lifetime experience--one I treasure.

The extent of the museum collection was overwhelming and not expected. We love Tiffany products, but this museum took us over the edge. Great exhibits, wonderful paper handouts, excellent docents. We missed the Christmas music event. It would have been special. We spent three hours here and loved it.

Thoughtfully laid out museum. With amazing knowledgeable collection of Tiffany art and artifacts.
Excellent way to spend a couple of hours with your significant other.
PLUS a great gift shop!

Wonderful Museum. We were there 2 hours and could have stayed longer. What an amazing collection. Very well displayed

This museum as a very large collection of Tiffany glass and art. It also has other artists but Tiffany is the main one featured. They have lamps, windows, furniture, etc. all designed by Tiffany. The cost is reasonable. I think it was $10.

This beautifully designed museum in Mt. Dora, Fl, has the largest collection of Tiffany glass in the WORLD! It’s really an eyeful to see not only magnificent lamps but the stained glass windows and doors are exquisite. The museum is partly designed so that replicas of rooms in Tiffany’s homes are highlighted, which adds to the beauty of his designs.
The friendly staff will help you set your phone so you can take an audio tour.

We had been here several years ago and went back. I had forgotten how great this is. Great history on Tiffany (the son and artist, not Louis Comfort Tiffany). There are brochures in every room detailing information on what is inside, as well as wall presentations. There is much painting and art pieces not by Tiffany that put the period 1860-1930 in context. Highlights are the chapel and remnants of his Long Island House. If you are in Orlando, this is an absolute must.

Some of the most beautiful glass art, stained glass windows, and unusual pieces of all kinds. The historical connection with Tiffany's life is extremely well done with pieces from his Long Island estate and various exhibits and historical structures. The Chapel I thought was breathtaking. If you are interested in history/art and have any interest in what Louis Tiffany and his contemporaries were about, go to this museum.

Lovely place, well presented, exquisite exhibits, and very good historical information provided in each of the galleries. A great place to spend a couple of hours, immersed in beauty and unsurpassed style.

This museum is in the heart of Winter Park. They start with a documentary movie with a detail explanation as to what you are about to see. They have a vast amount of art, memorabilia from Louis Comfort Tiffany. We learn about his life and art. They even have cellphone audio tours. I fall in love with this museum. It is so peaceful n beautiful that I didn’t want to leave this place. Very spectacular!!!!!

Each time I have visited Orlando, I have made sure to take a side trip to the Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art. The museum has the most extensive collection of Tiffany's art. You can't help but smile as you walk through the exhibits. There is also a video you can watch to help you become more familiar with the history of Tiffany and his artwork. The Morse Museum is also one of the most affordable museums in Florida. I highly recommend spending a few hours viewing this magnificent collection.

Great small museum filled with stunning collection of Tiffany glass as well as historical pieces related to the craft.

No thanks to Covid, I was the only person in this delightful collection of Tiffany and other Art Nouveau creations for about 30 minutes until two masked couples entered. What a delightful treat for the senses to see the lights, colors, textures and forms of art glass, lamps, jewelry, pottery, paintings, architectural materials-- and an entire chapel! I thought about all the people, humble and lauded, who saw these objects over the years and are now gone from this earth while these treasures continue to enrich ours. There is something special about humans driving us to create, image, construct, and collect, and pass on to another generation. And we like shiny and bright things don't we. There's a ton here so drink up!

The biggest collection of tiffany art. I enjoyed every part of it. The chapel is gorgeous. A must see!

This museum, which houses the largest collection of Tiffany glass in the world, is well worth the visit. Great and informative exhibits, beautiful pieces by Tiffany and other creators of art glass nationally and internationally, and a wonderful partial recreation of several rooms from Tiffany's (sadly fire-ruined) Long Island mansion are of particular note.

We have lived in Central Florida for over 30 years and had never been to the Morse Museum. Well we have missed a definite, must see.

Not only does it house the largest collection of Tiffany but some incredible art & pottery.

The history video is not to be missed when you arrive so you can appreciate all that you will be seeing on your visit.

See my pictures attached.

While in Winter Park, decided to visit this museum, at first I was not sure if it would be worth a visit, but since I had some time decided to give it a try. Glad I did, it was a nice surprise on the works of Tiffany. The chapel was really nice and museum was larger than I had thought with the back side of the building with decor from his mansion from New York. There are also some paintings along with his glass works. Worth the visit.

We visited the Morse Museum with friends, and we did not allow enough time. We spent one hour plus, but should have allotted 2 hours plus. The museum is divided into different areas, with lighting (lamps), windows, architectural elements, etc. Each section has a detailed brochure describing each piece; if you want to read most of these descriptions, then allow 2-3 hours for the museum. This is one of the largest displays of Tiffany art in the world. The sections on the Tiffany home on Long Island are very interesting, providing a more personal glimpse into the artist, and some of the material at the Morse came from this home. The cost of visiting the Morse Museum is very low ($5 for seniors!). And it is right along Park Avenue in downtown Winter Park.

We were not able to get our family of five on one timed reservation, but the receptionist allowed us all to come in together and we were even allowed to come early since we had arrived early. Patrons were mindful of social distancing. The museum has history as well as art of Tiffany. The glass pieces are well presented and stunningly beautiful. Even the grumpy teen boy was mesmerized.

Visited Winter Park, Orlando. Managed to get the last free parking space. Really surprised just how reasonable the entrance fee is, only $5 each, senior rate. Spent nearly 4 hrs with a break for lunch in the outside garden. The star for us both was seeing the contents of Tiffany house and all the interiors.

This museum is on the smaller side but it is very well curated and worth the trip, especially for the amazingly low price of entry.

We drove down from Gainesville for a day trip. The museum has free parking on site. The entry fee is very low (we paid a dollar each for being students but regular is only $6). We had to meet up with some family so we went through the whole museum reading the larger signs but did not stop to read every sign or use the cell phone tour. We made it through in about an hour with that strategy, but if you want to read everything then I would budget 2-3 times that. I really cannot convey how beautifully curated the art is in this museum. Truly stunning.

The museum is also located in such a cute area. I would highly recommend planning to grab food and walk around as park of your visit.

Super reasonable entry fee. A knowledgeable docent led us around several exhibits. Much larger than you would think. A fascinating insight into stained glass, Tiffany, and his time. Best gift store ever - full of interesting and unique items. Don’t miss the chapel full of mosaics and stained glass! Right on a charming shopping street with options for lunch and a stroll afterwards. Felt just like the hometown America featured in Hallmark movies. A great escape from all the Disney hype in the area.

The museum staff were very friendly and the Tiffany collection was amazing! After watching the videos, my appreciation for the craft deepened even more. The pictures that took does not do the exhibits justice!

We attended on an evening when admission was free. We enjoyed the museum very much as well as the surrounding area. We were also visiting Rollins college nearby.

Outstanding Museum with world class quality exhibits of the life and works of Louis Comfort Tiffany whose Chapel and stained glassed window panels are truly world class

The most beautiful collection of Tiffany I have ever seen. Works that were in World Expositions and in his private collections. You can easily spend half a day here. You will also learn a lot about Tiffany and his life in the Gilded Age...fascinating!

Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art has nice American art; however, it has an amazing display of Tiffany glass items. The detail and colors in the stained glass windows, lamps and other objects are gorgeous. A must see for those who enjoy art, especially glass.

Nothing I can say that has not already been said. I love this work and this is a magnificent display. And for such a low price as the benefactors have it set up to be self sustaining. A great gift for us all.

My second time here. It’s my understanding that it has the largest Tiffany collection. Liked it best the first time. The gift shop is really a lot of fun.

Because of covid, had to use back entrance. Well worth it if you like Tiffany.

One of the main incentives for our annual 3/4 week Orlando sojourns, is returning to this amazing assemblage of beauty and craftmanship; as we did again this year.
And, as we have done for the last several years; we come on December Friday evenings; when live music accomoanys one's immersion into the vision and creativity of a true aesthetic icon.
(There is also the additional bonus of seeing Winter Park in its seasonal splendor, at this time of year.)
As we've stated before; if one misses the opportunity to experience this exceptional museum, one is missing a true "must-see" destination.

Extraordinary smallish museum but packed with breath-takingly beautiful Tiffany art plus a bit else. The reconstructed chapel is a show stopper, and the recreated rooms from Tiffany's Laurelton home are not to be missed.

I like L.C. Tiffany a lot- think his glass work and ceramics among the best. The Morse museum certainly has an enormous collection- especially of works he did for his own houses versus those just to sale for others. The museum displays are excellent so you can see most things in the round. The stained glass windows include both religious and natural scenes. Some of the finest Tiffany pieces in the Met in NYC were given or lent by this collector. The staff is very helpful. Yes, parking might be a bit of a challenge because of the semi-historic district it was in - but I lucked out and got a space in the parking lot practically at the front door. If you like Tiffany this is a must.

The first plus to this fascinating museum is its location. It is situated right on the main street of Winter Park, a charming and pleasant town which is an attraction in itself. We were staying in Kissimmee in order to visit Epcot. This great museum is only about a 25 mile drive from Kissimmee. It's an easy trip from anywhere in the Orlando area. The museum has its own parking lot. Our admission (inexpensive) allowed us to leave the museum for lunch and re-enter to continue our viewing. Good lunch places were a stone's throw from the museum.

The museum is modern; exhibits are well lighted and the objects are not crowded together. Each gallery is supplied with printed handouts describing all the exhibited items in detail. You can take the handouts home and review them after your visit. Most of the exhibited items are by Louis Comfort Tiffany or his studio, but there are works by his contemporaries as well. The exhibits include lamps, vases and other art glass, glorious leaded glass windows, and more. One special feature is that there are several entire rooms created by Tiffany - a stunning chapel from the 1893 World's Fair and several beautiful rooms from the artist's former Long Island estate. All the staff members whom we encountered were welcoming and helpful.

The Morse Museum is absolutely lovely. Such a nice change of pace from all the crowded, frenetic, hyper-touristy days at Disney. The displays of Tiffany’s stained glass, pottery, and blown glass were unbelievably gorgeous. Also interesting to see his paintings and other furnishings and decorative items from the period. If you read the information provided about all the pieces and watch the 2 introductory videos, the museum will take about 2 hours to get through. (Could be done in less if you’re pressed for time, but if Tiffany is at all your thing you won’t want to rush.) Highly recommended!

I had a few hours to spare and enjoyed the museum with their large collection of the artwork of Louis Comfort Tiffany. It tells a remarkable story of the rise of Tiffany Stained glass but goes well beyond that. Paintings, architecture, ceramics, metalwork, functional furniture, and much more are on display. And for the $6 entrance fee a huge bargain especially since with the entrance sticker you can leave and return on the same day.
The museum has an excellent gift shop with offerings for every budget and is located in an area that has a lot of unique stores and restaurants. A great place to spend a day exploring.

We arrived on a Sunday afternoon and parked in the free parking garage near the museum. All floors except the top two have reserved parking spaces, and once we reached the top floor, there were plenty of parking spots available.

The museum is open on Sundays from 1 p.m. - 4 p.m., and we spent 3.5 of those hours taking in the abundant and absolutely beautiful artwork. This is a small museum with a big impact, where every room reveals something new and inspiring. If you are looking for a peaceful, art-filled afternoon in a welcoming setting, this is the place to visit.

Coming here continues to be a top priority, whenever we visit Orlando.
This December we stopped in twice, both times being on a Friday evening; when enjoying the artistry was augmented by live harp and harp/flute accompanyament.
The assembled beauty and craftmanship here provides a soothing aesthetic uplift; and a testament to the finer aspirations of the human spirit. Not only is one confronted by the realized creativity presented; but also by the inspiration that others strived to preserve it.
We enjoy browsing the exhibits, gathering new information and immersing ourselves in some our favorite stained glass creations.
We once again are looking forward to our next journey to the area, and a visit or two back here.
If one is anywhere near this location; the Morse is definitely a "must-see" destination.

I love the Morse. The Tiffany chapel is gorgeous and the volunteers are all amazing. I never tire of taking friends there when in Orlando.

Great little museum. Try to catch a guided tour very interesting. Not huge, but what they display is top notch.

If you are an art glass person, a stained glass person, a LCTiffany person or a person that just enjoys immersing themselves in beautiful items from the gilded age of over a 100 year ago this is a must. A fabulous and as they will tell you...."the most comprehensive collection of Tiffany works in the world" museum. The Keane's collected and insured with endowments that we all now can see the genius of Louis Comfort Tiffany. Spectacular windows, art glass and reconstructed vignettes of LCT's home on Long Island will keep you engaged for hours. Our small group went back the second day. It is a highly, highly recommended stop.

Absolutely mind blowing!! If you love Tiffany glass and art, do not miss this!! It is larger than you might think and the chapel is stunning.

In Orlando we know this as the Morse Museum. This place is one of my all time favorite museums. I am a huge fan of stained glass and love the work by Louis Comfort Tiffany. I don't think people realize how very special this collection is and how truly fortunate we are to have so many amazing pieces in one place. The Morse is very community oriented and frequently has opportunities to visit the museum for free. There are also amazing educational opportunities too. This is a real treasure and should not be missed if you appreciate art in all of its forms. I only wish I was able to personally thank Jeannette and Hugh McKean for being such generous philanthropists and sharing their love of art with Central Florida and all those who visit this fabulous museum.

I used to live in Orlando (20 years) and never knew this museum existed. It is STUNNING! I was amazed by the Tiffany collection - much more than just lampshades! The admission is not expensive either - you won't be disappointed!

We spent a very pleasant several hours visiting the Morse and highly recommend it. It is spacious, well laid out and easy to navigate. The Tillany collection is second to none and is a joy to see that much of his work under one roof.

When we took the boat ride and they mentioned Tiffany Glass-largest collection-I had to come to this museum. Besides Tiffany there are other art treasures. Be sure to watch the film first. Each room has a pamphlet explaining the exhibits. Admission is $5-6 and well worth it. There is a wheelchair available if needed and a nice gift shop. Also lots of space for sitting if you need to relax. I was rushed for time and definitely want to go again. Umbrella strollers only.

Prior to my visit I thought Tiffany made stained glass lamps and windows. He was a very gifted artist as well. This museum has one of the best collections of his work including a chapel he built for the Chicago Exhibition in 1893. It was pretty much wrecked over the years after Tiffany's death but has been painstakingly restored and it's awe-inspiring. There are several recreations of the rooms in his New York estate and hundreds of his works. Very worth the time to see it. It's in the heart of downtown Winter Park. If you're lucky you may get one of the parking spots behind the museum.

Every time we visit the area we make for this attraction.
Be amazed at the beauty of Tiffany pieces.
Just go there and enjoy.

Tiffany was an important person in the art world at the turn of the 20th Century. He was talented and his influence was major during that time period. The museum has a wealth of items that highlight items from his factory that were created under his watchful and critical eye. The displays of stained glass panels and lamps are excellent. Other architectural items and jewelry, paintings, sculptures, and ceramics are well displayed with excellent printed information. The museum is well laid out and designed. Start with the video so that you have an overview. The staff is friendly, well educated and professional. We did not use the audio tour feature but it would be worth investigating. If we lived in the area, I would return and increase my knowledge of this favorite time in history! It is a wonderful collection!

A highlight of this museum is the Byzantine-Romanesque chapel Tiffany designed for the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago. It is a masterpiece which includes a baptistery, a 1,000 pound cross-shaped chandelier, 16 mosaic columns, a mosaic altar and stained glass windows. The museum also features a large number of brilliant jewel-toned leaded glass windows and lamps as well as Tiffany jewelry and blown glass pieces including vases in the forms of pansies, lilies and carnations. There is a free docent-led tour at 2:30. It only cost me $1.00 entrance fee since they gave me the student rate. There is free parking in the back. There are many nice restaurants and shops along the street where the museum is located

The biggest collection of Tiffany artifacts anywhere, including large, unexpected display of Tiffany pottery. Remains/recreation of historic ornate chapel from 1893 Chicago's World Fair is an added plus. Allow 1-2 hours. Museum location is close to restaurants and shops.

Do not let hefty admission prices deter you from enjoying this amazing museum. We had been in Winter Park once before and my assumption was that it would be in the $20+ category so we gave it a pass. It was $6, $5 for seniors and well worth it.
The displays are well spaced, and the rooms are numerous. Truly, any aspect of Tiffany’s life is probably addressed on the well placed signage throughout. Had no idea how many mediums Tiffany worked in!

This is a wonderful museum and if you love Louis Comfort Tiffany, it is a must see. There are a number of Tiffany lamps, windows, recreations of rooms from Tiffany's homes, and vases and other art. I liked that the museum was smaller and not overwhelming. We spent about an hour but you could easily spend 1-2 hours.

Wanted a much needed change from the heat and theme parks and were so glad we did, what a wonderful museum and such a bargain for two oldies like us!
The amount of original art and not just glass, paintings, drawings and it gave insight into the life of Tiffany and the benefactor of the museum, and then to find a quiet place to muse, the conservatory was totally unexpected.
I do have to mention the lovely clean restrooms, everything about them was amazing, even an arts and crafts bench, wide doorways and plenty of them. 10 out of 10 for your bathrooms!
The lady on the desk was very helpful even informing us where else we could find more of his work, although we didn't find the staff in the shop as welcoming.
Free public parking on neighbouring streets was easily available.

The “Morse”, as we call it, is our favorite place to take our visiting friends and relatives. It has the largest and quite spectacular collection of Tiffany glass and art in the country.
The museum is not very large but is packed with the most gorgeous pieces of glass, pottery and art from the 19th century era. The introductory films are well worth the 15 minutes to give a history and background information about the artist and the collection.
Our idea of a perfect Winter Park day is some shopping, an hour or two at the Morse, lunch along the avenue, and the boat ride!

This museum is filled with beautiful art. I left with an appreciation for the artistry of the Tiffany stained glass as well as the generosity of the museum’s founders. My family and I took a break from Disney and had an absolutely lovely day at this museum.

This is a fantastic art museum and it only costs $5 each. We were there for about 2 hours. Although it is primarily Tiffany oriented, there are a couple rooms with paintings and artwork by other artists as well. But, the reason we are there is Tiffany. So many beautiful windows and glass work to see. Also, other items designed by Tiffany, like lamps and jewelry. There is a large section that features furniture and items from Louis Tiffany's home at Laurelton Hall. Things that were rescued from the 1925 home which was severely damaged by fire. One of the treasures in the museum is an entire Chapel created by Tiffany for the Chicago World's Fair in 1893. It's quite exquisite! There are also a couple of films that are educational about Tiffany, his home and the process he used for creating glass artwork. It's a delightful museum.

This place needs more PR! Why have we never heard of this museum? It was a joy and a pleasure to explore this wonderful museum. Beautiful collection, intelligently displayed. Educational too.
Highly recommended.

This is a very interesting museum for learning about the stained glass process and the life of Louis Tiffany. We have visited several times. It is a really nice change from the world of Mickey Mouse. Excellent video program on the development of the museum.

Museum of Tiffany glass, panels, artwork gallery is truly amazing. We were in awe at everything. The rooms are beautifully lighted and music playing in the background set the mood. You can connect to the internet or call a special phone number to listen to narrated audio descriptions of artwork and Tiffany pieces.

Very beautiful, but I took one star off because the man outside of the chapel today was not friendly at all. We lost track of time because we were enjoying reading and looking at the art. He told us that they close at 4 (it was 4:17). We apologized and explained that we lost track of time. He practically pushed us out the door. I wondered if we could have a minute in the gift shop (I definitely wanted something nice for my condo), and I added that I understood if they just wanted to go home. He said, ‘You can go through whatever door gets you to your car the easiest.’ We tried to lighten the mood by saying, “Point taken, get out,” and laughed. He was not amused at all. We thought it was pretty rude and, after having such a nice time, it was pretty disappointing to leave on that note.

Our family really enjoyed the Morse Museum! The displays were an amazing example of Louis Comfort Tiffany’s work. It was so neat to see so many different pieces: windows, lamps, jewelry, vases... We will definitely be back!

I went to this museum while visiting a friend in Orlando. We really didn't expect much, but just wanted something fun to do together. This museum was well worth the very reasonable admission price. We spent several hours here and found the quality of art to be exceptionally high. There is a lot of art here besides Tiffany, and everything was exceptional. Don't miss the cathedral behind the wooden doors! We thought we had finished the museum and were looking at postcards in the gift shop when we realized we had missed a whole section! I highly recommend spending some time here, and then visiting the shops and restaurants in this charming town!

Wonderful collection of Tiffany art! The presentation of the art work is very well done.

If you are into Tiffany glasswork, this is a must visit!

This small museum hides beautiful treasures. It is said to be the most extensive collection of Tiffany artworks in the world. It has tons of lamps, stained glass, jewelry, pottery, and paintings. Tiffany was an incredible artist in so many different mediums. There are other works by other artists as well. One of the highlights is the chapel that Tiffany constructed for a world fair that has been restored and installed in the Morse. The attention to detail is impressive. You can see the entire place in about an hour and even the kids liked it.

This museum was larger than I imagined. So many beautiful things. I was amazed by the creativity of Louis Comfort Tiffany. I didn't know he also painted. And his story is very interesting.

A wonderful collection of Tiffany’s work, not limited to single pieces or stained glass. Room after room of lovely works.

Beautiful collection of Tiffany works, some set in recreated rooms from Tiffany's house, with very interesting information about Tiffany and the house. Have been here several times, and have always enjoyed it. Watch the video for the background information. Also, the admission fee is only $5! It's really a bargain for a very enjoyable visit.

Came here at the request of my mom, and I was surprised how much it appealed to me. The space and exhibits are beautiful. I will return.

This is a delightful museum to visit. Not only are there beautiful displays of different types of art but there is also so much background information on Louis Comfort Tiffany. It is a great way to spend an hour or many hours! Don't miss the gift shop which has many interesting treasures as well. You can't beat the ticket price either.

The Tiffany exhibit is fascinating, worth your time. We learned that Tiffany is far more than glass shades. Much more important to the history of American art than we realized.

Really nice museum. Some really nice Tiffany windows, jewelry and paintings, as well as work by others. Very uncrowded but definitely worth a visit. In addition downtown Winter Park itself is great way to spend the day.

A wonderful museum with exquisite art from Louis Comfort Tiffany: his glass, his paintings, his chapel, windows, jewelry and all his creations are "breath-taking!" There are other displays from painters which were most enjoyable to view. Each room had a brochure to teach what each item was and explain about it. Other than the fact that the museum was freezing cold (we had to go to the car to get a jacket and return), it was a most delightful way to spend an afternoon. I would return again just to admire the Tiffany treasures.

A brlliant museum located in the delightful Winter Park area. The area has a lovely village feel with quirky shops and interesting buildings but the icing on the cake is this museum - a must for fans of art nouveau. In addition to seeing many of Tiffany's beautiful works of art the exhibition includes original pieces from his home at Laurelton Hall. The museum is very quiet and peaceful but well set out with 2 very informative videos that explain the background and how the museum came about. All thanks to Jeannette Genius McKean who recognised the elegance and splendour of Louis Comfort Tiffany. The Museum shop is an added bonus with some very unique and beautiful gifts.

THE CHARLES HOSMER MORSE MUSEUM IS A HIDDEN GEM. IT HAS A LARGE TIFFANY COLLECTION. THERE IS A TIFFANY COLLECTION AND EARLY AMERICAN ART. ARRIVE EARLY AS PARKING IS LIMITED. THERE IS A PARKING STRUCTURE NEAR BUT MUST BE ENTERED EARLY. WE TAKE ALL OUR FAMILY AND VISTORS THERE.

This is a gem and something worth traveling to if you are in the Orlando area and want something different. A beautiful museum with the largest collection of Tiffany glass and great videos, etc. about Louis Tiffany. The people who founded this museum, Jeannette and Hugh McKean, are also profiled and they are fascinating people. Really inexpensive -- $ 6 for adults and $5 for seniors. There is also a free cell phone based audio tour. Getting the hang of this was challenging at first but once we got it set up, it offered very interesting commentary. Nice shops and restaurants along Park Street. Make a day of it in Winter Park.

This is a collection of Tiffany artifacts that staggers the imagination. Most people have heard of fancy "Tiffany Lamps" but this museum really shows off the skill and craftsmanshift of the Tiffany company. It's small but a real gem that everyone needs to see and admire.

This is another fantastic small museum that captures a slice of Americana. The Tiffany Chapel is not only stunning and serene, but gives a glimpse of the 1893 Worlds Fair in Chicago. The Museum of Science and Industry is the only building still standing from the Chicago's Fair ( The Worlds' Columbian Exposition was the official name of the Fair) so the preservation and re-creation of that chapel is a special piece of history. I did a very quick search to see if Morse was part of the leadership team that built the Fair, but could not find any association (I have not read through all the literature from the Museum so it may already be documented and I have not yet located.) For anyone interested, the novel "The Devil in the White City" is an excellent historical of the creation of the Fair and the story of the serial killer operating during the Fair.

The voluminous amount of Tiffany objects is incredible. You will need plenty of time if you want to see all the beauty and history of Tiffany. The explanations of how Tiffany created his processes are fascinating. I was also pleasantly surprised with the small collection of impressionist turn of the century art and other collections which I barely had time to breeze by.

The Museum is very accessible and the integration of cell-phone aided narrative was helpful. I can't say enough good things about this gem in Winter Park. I hope to go back soon and spend more time exploring.

Very nice museum. Tiffany's collection is incredible and definitely worth it. You can see also art nouveau from europe with beautiful Gallé collection.

Fantastic museum. Far exceeded expectations. Spectacular collection of Tiffany are, and solid collection of 19th Century American. paintings.

I just finished a conference in Orlando, and I needed to kill a day before my flight departed. I had recently read the book, The Tiffany Girls, (highly recommend) and saw that this museum exhibited Tiffany glass so I decided to make a stop. I was completely blown away by this museum! The entry fee is nominal, and the pieces are well displayed. Many of his most important works are contained in this museum, such as the Four Seasons, the dragonfly lamp, the magnolia window, and more. Being able to see these pieces up close was just a thrill. I actually went back into several rooms more than once, and collected all the pamphlets to read later. I especially liked the section where they replicated rooms from his manor, including the daffodil gazebo. I cannot recommend this museum more! It's definitely a must visit! The gift shop also contained some great options for taking a sample of your trip home, I got some beautiful note cards of some of the pieces that I saw in the exhibit.

Visiting my sister, who has trouble walking, I hoped to find something to do that would let her get out. The Morse Museum, its outstanding Tiffany collection, and the availability of a wheelchair, made it a natural. We lucked out in that a docent was just beginning a tour of Tiffany glass -- she was as outstanding as the collection. There was so much to see, and my sister bought a Christmas decoration in the shop. A visit well worth it for two hours.

The Morse has more Tiffany glass and other objects than anywhere else. Better still, they have it nicely displayed where I can see it easily at close range, often from multiple angles. The latter seems rare, based on stained glass I have seen at other museums and in church windows. What amazed me most was how three-dimensional the Tiffany windows are. Windows from private estates have rounded mounds of glowing glass for grapes and layers of glass representing angular shards of ice. A beautifully textured carved door from India seemed right in context. I was happy to find an exhibit with a sample of different glass types labeled "please touch." While admiring so much texture, it felt remarkably satisfying to touch some, too. Winter Park itself looks interesting and I wish I had had time to explore the area. I toured at a pace that worked for me and stayed about 2.5 hours. Someone who prefers to read every word of text might need longer.

Although I’ve visited Winter Park before this was my first time at this charming museum. What an absolutely beautiful collection. Of course the Tiffany glass was amazing, but I also enjoyed other featured American artists. The museum is well laid out but make sure and take a map so you don’t miss anything. You can either use your cell phone to aid your tour or take small booklets offered in each room explaining the pieces. Highly recommend!

Wonderful collection and I was interested to discover the range of Tiffany's work as well as learning about some of the techniques used. The intro video was interesting but could be skipped in favor of looking at the exhibits. Restrooms, nice gift shop.

This was my 3rd visit in the past year! Has the largest Tiffany Glass collection in the world. The museum also gives you a wonderful history of Winter Park and Charles Morse and his granddaughter (&her husband) who created the museum! A must see!

Excellent collection of Louis Comfort Tiffany items. I was impressed---not just lamps!! Recreation of his home, also.

I cannot say enough about this museum. Wonderful educational exhibits, incredible staff, If you are anywhere near Orlando you need to visit Winter Park and The. Morse Museum.

I thoroughly enjoyed this museum, even though it was sort of an afterthought when other plans had to be scuttled. The information and displays were super-interesting. I had no idea about the deeper history of the Tiffany family. Impressive. The Morse family's gift to this nation by finding and preserving the Tiffany legacy is somethign truly special.

This museum, tucked in lovely Winter Park, was the highlight of our spring break visit to Orlando. We took the train (Sun Rail) both ways and it is a very easy five minute walk from the station to the museum. There are many nice places to eat downtown -- both indoors and sitting outdoors if you wish. It's an upscale place, so the $5 museum admission is really the bargain of the city for visitors.

We have always liked Tiffany lamps, but we could not believe how much of his collection is here. And, the chapel from the World's Fair has a remarkable story. Be sure to watch the brief films to learn why his collection ended up in Winter Park.

We were lucky enough to have a wonderful docent that volunteered to show us around. We learned much more because of her knowledge of art history, too. Ask if a docent might be available if you miss the scheduled tour time as we did. Also, there is a very lovely smaller garden outside the entrance if you need a break. The Morse Museum will not disappoint.

We visited here maybe 10 years ago or more and we loved it. It had a wonderful collection of Tiffany produced items, including an entire interior of a chapel that was shown at the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago. There’s a new wing. Now they have an even larger collection including stuff Mr.Hosmer rescued from Tiffany’s personal estate that burned down on Long Island. Thank God he did. If you are a fan of Tiffany’s work, like I am, you will be in 7th heaven. Now they have non-Tiffany works, too and some are quite good, but it’s clear that Tiffany is the star of the show. It’s a very pleasant atmosphere to view beautiful art. The staff is excellent. My wife and I had a 30-45 minute ad-hoc tutorial from a docent about Tiffany and about how to create our own glass treasures. He’d been doing it forever and was a fountain of advice. He did it with gusto, too. By the way, they have a great gift shop. I spent a fortune.

An added benefit of visiting this museum is that it is on a lovely street full of restaurants, shops and parks in the charming town of Winter Park. We walked some after our visit and then had a lovely dinner at a Turkish restaurant callled Bosphorus. I’m normally not that adventurous, but the menu looked interesting and the interior was nice. Everything was great. The atmosphere was lovely, the waitstaff excellent and the food tasty, although my portion was a little skimpy. Highly recommended.

Go and have a great time.

Well done museum. More than Tiffany lamps, but you see that also. Appreciate all the art mediums used n]by Tiffany.

What a delightful place to visit. The museum is full of LC Tiffany creations. They also have various exhibits of American pottery. We have been there twice and were awed by the glass works of Tiffany and enjoyed all the exhibits. The gift shop is very dangerous and offers a lot of tempting pieces to remember your visit. Anyone who admires Tiffany must visit this museum.

The Morse Museum has a surprisingly large collection of different types of art from Tiffany and other artists. There a large number of rooms each featuring a related collection. Each of the rooms have a brochure explaining by number the artifacts in that room. I collected 18 of them.They have a Chapel designed by Tiffany that was moved from Chicago to New York and then to the museum. Many other surprises are there including an admission price of $6 for Adults and $5 for Seniors. It is less than an hour from most of the Orlando area.

American glass, pottery, furniture of late 19th and early 20th century. Well-rounded review of LC Tiffany’s work, including windows, lamps, vases, and even his oil paintings. I’ve never seen the latter before, even though I’ve been to NYC Metropolitan and Norfolk’s Chrysler museums. A must-see for Tiffany students and fans.

Easy to find and free parking around. We happened on an Open House day, so entrance was free; even so, the tickets are very reasonable at $6/adult ($5 for seniors). Well worth it.

Starting with the videos is best so you get the background history of both the man (Tiffany) and the Museum, which was the brainchild of a determined couple of art lovers who went above and beyond in the creation of this gem.

Take your time as you wend your way through the various rooms of Tiffany glass productions, as well as paintings and room reproductions. It is lovely and peaceful and, if you've a mind to sit awhile when the weather is cooler, there's a nice courtyard in the middle of the museum.

Only complaint would be that everything in the gift shop is very, very expensive, so be prepared if you want to buy something (guess that makes up for the low entrance fee)

This is one of my 'go to' places for my out of town guests. The museum has a tremendous collection of Louis Comfort Tiffany items, including the Tiffany Chapel from 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago.
