In the lovely town of Winter Park, FL you will find a delightful museum with the most complete exhibition of art by Louis Comfort Tiffany. The displays are well laid out and each room has its own Galley Guide. Take a few hours and enjoy.

If you have any interest in Louis Comfort Tiffany or the American Arts & Crafts movement, this museum cannot be missed. The main exhibition at the Morse Museum would be jaw-dropping by itself. However, the rooms with parts of Tiffany's demolished Long Island estate - Laurelton Hall - will overwhelm you with both the beauty and the loss when the... More

This museum is not to be missed. It doesn't look big from the outside but there are numerous exhibits and a gift store inside. The most spectacular exhibit is the Tiffany altar. This exhibit alone is worth the admission. It is located on Park Avenue which is a brick street with upscale shops and restaurants, many with outdoor seating.

If you like Stain Glass and Tile work this is a great museum to view past works of art glass. There is enough to observe to keep you interested for an afternoon of enjoyment. Objects of Art from an era of the past. History of an Artist, a period, a business and beauty.

It still leaves me speechless! The glass, the paintings, and furnishings. Parts of Tiffany's Long Island estate are here, including some beautiful daffodil columns. There are informative videos at the start, as well as a tour of part of the museum. Every room is filled with beauty! There are handouts in each room, describing each piece. This is a wonderful...

The reason to visit the Morse Museum is the Tiffany glass collection. To make your museum experience a bit more special, read the book, Clara and Mr. Tiffany, by Susan Vreeland before visiting. It sets a context for some of the room recreations. Another added bonus, the location in Downtown Winter Park, FL is delightful. Lots of restaurants and shopping... More

This is a must see for fans of Antique Road Show. Morse was a collector of Tiffany glass and pottery. Incredible collection all in one place. Much of this was in storage for years - hence the excellent condition of the huge collection of Tiffany Art. Mesmerizing. It was Easter weekend, so there was no admission charge, although the regular... More
