    What a ‘hidden’ gem of St. Pete! We stopped in on a Sunday mid-morning and had a relaxing visit to the gallery. Jack was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the work displayed in the gallery and their artists. We loved the variety and uniqueness of the pieces and the outdoor garden. Keeping the gallery free to the public (with donations accepted) helps make it accessible to all. We’d definitely recommend it to art lovers living in/visiting St. Pete!

    This was our third visit! We love how the galleries are constantly changing with beautiful new pieces to view! We enjoy talking to the owners and love the work they do helping children. The outdoor areas also offer beautiful glass pieces, lovely orchids to view, and comfy furniture to allow you time to sit and take in the whole experience!

    Just the best cool stuff, creative art, superbly crafted by real artisans. Real operating kiln in the back so you can see the real deal happening while you're there (check times before you go) They also have an educational program for area schools, as well as a mobile van it takes their artisan craft to local area gatherings. This and the imagine museum are definitely must seize in this cute little town of St Pete.

    Loved visiting here. Free entry. Variety of glass art on display, including from notable artists. I'm tempted to stare at individual pieces for awhile from many angles (my photos here don't do them justice!), which is not how I feel at most museums. Artists blow glass there and you can watch them. Nice gardens. There also outdoor cats. And we spoke with the owner Duncan, that was informative and interesting.

    By far the most intriguing and unique glass blown artwork I have ever seen! Duncan and Irene McClellan (owners) answered all of our questions and gave helpful insight to all the artists, including Duncan himself. Had a chance meeting and photo opportunity with one artist, Kevin Daigle, who was repairing a machine the artist used frequently, and he gave some interesting information about how artist mold, shape and polish art pieces. I definitely donated !

    Beautiful glass art gallery and on site glass blowing studio. They also have an outside venue great for parties, with a beautiful garden with orchids everywhere. Something for everyone, but not suitable for children.

    Beautiful and very interesting art glass. We were lucky because we got to watch someone creating in the hot shop. I always enjoy visiting Duncan's Gallery.

    We visited the gallery and were able to talk with the artists and watch glass blowing. The people were incredibly friendly and knowledge, wanting to share and showed a lot of pride in all their work. Some beautiful extraordinary pieces of art on display. They periodically change their featured artists and work, so we would love to return to see more.

    What a wonderful gallery, studio & school. Absolutely beautiful works of art in a plethora of price ranges. Watching the glass blowing & sculpting demonstration was awe-inspiring. Such talent, such beauty & very welcoming hosts. Thank you Duncan and all for your hospitality.

    A true treasure in S St Pete in the warehouse art district. If you haven’t been, go! Duncan and his team gave our youth leadership pinellas group a fantastic tour. Thanks to them for all they do to support our local community, and the glass arts community world wide.

    Found this hidden gem which was on tripadvisors recommendation of places to check out in St Pete. This spectacular gallery showcases contemporary glass from artisans all over the world. The pieces are also available for purchase and are frequently rotated. I had the pleasure of chatting with the owner of the gallery who shared his creative experiences along with the history of the gallery. The outdoor space is beautifully manicured and features statues throughout the grounds. There's a hot box workshop where I had the pleasure of watching a live demonstration of glass work in the making. If you are in the St. Pete area I highly recommend stopping by as you don't want to miss out on experiencing all the extraordinary talent!

    Very nice gallery. Much bigger than we thought. Inside and out areas plus a glass blowing area. Nice people working there.Owner was very pleasant and helpful

  • 5/5 Martin P. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful gallery with truly gracious hosts. If you are in the area, you would be remiss if you didn’t indulge. Nearly every form of glass art imaginable with some of the best pieces attributable to the proprietor. A must see.

    Don't sleep on this gem! The glass art is incredible and I really enjoyed the outdoor seating area and sculpture garden. I really appreciated being able to sit a bit after walking around.

    If you are in or headed to SW Florida, don't miss this opportunity to see incredible glass works of art. It is very impressive when the owners/artists greet you when you come in the door. But that's when you are "blown away" lol, by the glass art that is in front of you. The amount of glass works from different artists will leave your jaw dropped. Mostly, McClennan's work etching glass is extraordinary. You must go, the entire grounds and glass shop can't be missed. They also support a mission call DMG School Project which enables young folks to learn about glass blowing, even a mobile studio. I will go each time I am down in Florida, probably a few times and bring more friends.

    This place has some of the coolest glass art I've ever seen. Just incredible. YOU MUST GO!

  • 5/5 Christa A. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a beautiful gallery. It is very well kept and we had the pleasure of meeting Duncan himself, who was kind, fun and down to earth. I wish we had cash to make a donation, but we will be back! I didn’t take any photos of the artwork, but they also give super sweet kitties a safe home, which makes my heart happy. A great stop on a Saturday morning!!

  • 5/5 Sarah T. 1 year ago on Google
    Incredible collection from 128 artists. Charming gardens that seem enchanted as evening light plays on glass sculptures. Duncan is warm and welcoming, his energy and enthusiasm for supporting emerging artists is infectious. Glass blowing demonstration is at once dramatic and fascinating.

  • 5/5 Jennifer U. 9 months ago on Google
    The most beautiful art gallery I have been to. The owner and artist (Duncan) and his wife, Irene are gracious hosts. I will be hosting my next party in their outside space (absolutely beautiful)!

  • 5/5 Sally N. 1 year ago on Google
    What a terrific morning we had at the gallery. We were suprised at the large collection of the finest art glass we have seen. Duncan was especially welcoming and answered all our questions. The glass blowers were working while we were there which was an added bonus to see. The garden is full of playful art and best of all the gallery is free (donations welcome). This is a must visit for art lovers and a special destination for area residents.

    Amazing collection of quality art glass for sale, some from the same artists displayed at the Imagination Museum! The owner is an accomplished glass artist himself and a friendly curator. Missed the Saturday Hot Shop but definitely worth a stop to anyone who enjoyed the Imagination Museum.

  • 5/5 Kate G. 4 months ago on Google
    Amazingly beautiful art. I coveted a great number of the pieces. The owner was very welcoming, despite the fact that we looked like unlikely candidates to become paying customers.

  • 5/5 Martha C. 1 year ago on Google
    A true feast for the eyes. Full of unique art pieces of rare beauty. Loved how he showcases 125 different artists. I am certain it will only be a short time that the Netflix series BLOWN AWAY will involve this studio and Duncan McClellan in some way. Thank you for the most satisfying experience viewing more than the eye can take in. Truly breathtaking!

    Really great stuff, lots of fun things to see, well fed friendly cats, very nice staff…not to mention really beautiful art! ….it’s a must-see. Parking seems weird, but I just parked on the grass out front and had no problems.
