Edward Libbey moved his glass company to Toledo for the natural gas and gave the fortune back as one of the best mid-sized art museums in the country, free since its founding. The studio glass movement was literally born on the grounds: a 1962 workshop in a museum garage proved an artist could melt glass outside a factory. The collection's Glass Pavilion, walled entirely in curved glass, is the joke and the point at once.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
