Learn the Art of Glassmaking
One of the coolest parts of the museum is getting a behind-the-scenes look at how glass art is made. You’ll discover fascinating techniques like:
- Sandblasting – where glass is artistically carved using high-speed air and sand,
- Fused glass – layering colorful glass pieces and heating them to fuse into a design,
- Airbrushing – spray painting detailed artwork on glass surfaces.
And yes, it’s as fun as it sounds!
Hands-On Fun: Make Your Own Glass Art
This isn’t your typical museum where you just walk and look — at i-Box, you do. You can roll up your sleeves and join a DIY session to make your very own glass souvenir. Whether it’s a decorated glass bottle, a custom keychain, or a small plate, it’s the perfect personal keepsake from your Penang trip.

A Museum with a Green Heart
The i-Box Glass Museum also promotes eco-conscious art by incorporating recycled glass in its exhibits. It’s a creative, educational way to raise awareness about sustainability — while still being totally stunning to look at.
