Beginning with the beating heart and breath of glass, The Glass Heart - Art, Industry & Collaboration explores key moments in English glassmaking history, bringing together significant glass collections, the stories of their making, and techniques and styles from 170 years of creative and industrial collaboration.

The Glass Heart explores the soul of this remarkable material as it is used to express human stories and ideas. Unforgiving, fragile and strong - it is showcased here as an experimental art form, an endangered traditional skill, and an expression of a historic industry.
