Where Legacy Comes to Life

Through thoughtfully curated exhibits, our museums invite you to explore the roots of the Oglebay family's historic estate and the values that shaped it. As you journey through the past, you’ll also uncover West Virginia’s proud tradition of glassblowing—an art form that reflects our state’s enduring spirit of craftsmanship. Our museum experiences are proudly presented by Oglebay Institute—an organization that has enriched lives through arts and nature since 1930.
