Just show up ready for adventure and enjoy the day! All trips that include show tickets are assured good seating. You will receive confirmation of your trip directly from Scenic Excursions. 

All trips will leave from the Eastern Hills Mall, 4545 Transit Road, Williamsville, 14221 (EH). Park in the rear of the mall near the food court entrance - halfway back in the lot.

We will travel the scenic route to CORNING, NY. We will be greeted upon arrival at the CORNING MUSEUM OF GLASS. Enjoy a SELF-GUIDED TOUR of the Museum. See the HOT GLASS SHOW and enjoy the museum at your leisure. LUNCH is included at the CORNING MUSEUM OF GLASS WITH VOUCHER.  This voucher will pay for your entire lunch, and perhaps have a bit left over to purchase a souvenir (or snack) to bring home. This afternoon, you will have a FUN WITH GLASS ACTIVITY included in your Corning Experience. MAKE YOUR OWN UNIQUE SUNCATCHER.  You’ll start by creating a design using colored frit (small chunks of glass), thin glass strings, and larger glass pieces. Museum staff will provide glass in a variety of colors and shapes for you to arrange in your design. You’ll secure your design in place, and Corning professionals will heat the piece in the kiln oven overnight. The glass fuses together to create a single piece of glass.

Pieces must cool overnight and will be shipped to us. There will be a meeting time to pick up your masterpiece.
