About

The Historical Glass Museum Foundation was founded in 1976 by Dixie Huckabee, and a group of interested glass collectors. It took the Foundation nine years of hard work and fundraising to open the Historical Glass Museum to the public in 1985.

In 1977 the Foundation purchased a 1903 Victorian-style home at 1157 North Orange Street in the Museum exteriorpicturesque city of Redlands. It was the beginning of a dream to preserve specimens of American glass from factories that were becoming extinct, as well as factories and glass artists currently producing glass. The Museum now houses the largest collection of glass west of the Mississippi River.
