"Nestled in the heart of Beacon in New York’s scenic Hudson Valley, Hudson Beach Glass is a working glass studio and gallery where creativity comes to life. "
Review:★★★★★ When I walked into Hudson Beach Glass in the heart of Beacon, I felt like I’d discovered a hidden creative haven. If you are like me, you’ll be amazed at how the light dances off every piece of glass. You should take your time exploring the gallery. I found myself mesmerized by the intricate colors and shapes. Each one looked like a tiny universe.
