The place takes about 1 hr to go through. Parking is free on the 3rd floor, next to the Publix. Amazing art, but small place. They take student discount. Good informative video about the artist. They also offer a viewing on how they blow glass

If you are a Chihuly fan, you must see the pieces on display here. We have visited Chihuly exhibits all over the USA and this is a wonderful collection.

I have been wanting to go to this museum for awhile and was not disappointed. The only regret is that there should be more. The film showing his history was wonderful and then we went around the corner for a glass blowing demo. GREAT

I thought there would be more, but what was in this museum was wonderful and well-displayed. We enjoyed it, although it didn't take very long.

Chihuly is a master glass blower. His work never ceases to amaze me and I never tire of seeing his work. His place is a reciprocal venue on some museum memberships. Even if it isn’t. It’s worth every penny. Here are some highlights.

A nice retrospective of some of Chihuly’s iconic works. The “glass ceiling” is a high point. Some smaller pieces are offered for sale.

Such beautiful displays! Wished it was larger! Really enjoyed the glass blowing demonstration. The colors are so vibrant! Even my son was fascinated by the skill it takes and the amazing designs.

This was an incredibly exhibit to get to see up close, you can walk right up to the pieces and see the amazing details Chihuly incorporated into his work. It was amazing to see the range of his work, from chandeliers and bowls to vases, flowers, neon sculptures, and entire landscapes! I initially thought the ticket was a little bit pricey for the size of the collection; even though you see a lot of great things, it's not a huge gallery. But, what made the price a little more worth it was the ability to watch a glass blowing demonstration at an affiliated glass studio about a block away from the showroom, which was cool to sit in on.

$18.00 senior price for a very small exhibit that takes about 20 minutes to walk through. Can't believe they built a special building for this.

A very interesting place to visit. I would highly recommend watching the glass blowing demonstration across the street first to give you a greater appreciation for all of the pieces in the collection. Highly recommend.

Use Google to look for coupons if you need a special rate. When we went in June 2018, it was $5 admission because we happen to be there during Arts Weekend (not sure of the name). It was a busy Saturday, but not so crowded that you could not enjoy the exhibit. We parked on the street a block away.

How Different is it from the Chihuly Gardens in Seattle?
We’ve spent time at the permanent Chihuly museum in Seattle (highly recommended!) and as Florida residents are wondering if this is worth the trip/admission. Can anyone who’s been to both compare them?

We've been to both Chihuly exhibits. The Seattle Gardens and Museum are much larger than the St. Petersburg, but cost approximately $30 for Seattle vs. $20 for St. Pete. The single reason to visit St. Pete's museum (in my opinion) is the film that looks into his works in Israel and elsewhere.

We parked about a block away on a Sunday. Not sure what it would be during the week.

There are no formal tours, but the museum is small and you can take as much time as you like. As stated above, across the street is an interesting glass blowing demonstration that is included with your ticket.

Your admission ($20 / adult) includes admission to the blown glass demonstration held one block away; be sure to see this! Very interesting.
