The Museum’s long-range outreach pro- grams expanded in 2009, most spectacularly at sea. In 2007, Celebrity Cruises asked us to develop a program of hot glass demonstrations for a new class of luxury ships. Rob Cassetti, Steve Gibbs, and their team rose to the occa- sion. Building on the experience gained at the Museum and on the road, the team designed a Hot Glass Show that offers year-round glass- blowing demonstrations on two ships.

47 Financial Operating Results Report Despite the Museum’s concerns about a weak economy at the beginning of the year, visitation increased, visitor revenues were stronger than anticipated, and budgeted expenses were cut by $2 million to contribute to the financial success of 2009. The Museum ended the year with annual operating revenues exceeding operating expenses by $795,000. Below is an abbreviated version of the Museum’s operating results compared to last year.

2009 2008 Total revenues and other funding $33,935,096 $35,063,079 Total expenses 33,140,055 34,698,569 Operating surplus $ 795,041 $ 364,510

Other important results for 2009 were:

1. The Museum Operating Reserve Fund (MORF) balance at the end of the year was $17.5 million, up from $15.6 million at December 31, 2008. 2.  Total glass and library acquisitions were $1.7 million, an increase of 36 percent. Donations to the Museum’s collections were valued at $959,000. 3. Museum visitation grew four percent over 2008 attendance, to 365,000 guests. a. Individual and family visitation was up 11 percent, with very strong regional visitation, which was positively influenced by the weak economy and a rainy summer. b.  Tour groups were down seven percent. Group travel was negatively affected by the weak economy, fears of H1N1 flu, new bus driver regulations, and delays at the Canadian/U.S. border. 4. Visitor revenues were $8.1 million, which was 1.5 percent below 2008. Sales in the Glass- Market were down six percent because of the impact of the weak economy on consumer spending. 5. Twenty-two percent of individual and family visitors participated in our Make Your Own Glass program. Revenues from that program totaled $917,000, an 11 percent increase over 2008. 6. Thirty thousand people attended the Museum’s public programs and education programs in Corning.

7. In July 2009, the Museum launched Hot Glass Show demonstrations on the second of Celebrity Cruises’ Solstice-class ships, providing live glassblowing to about 120,000 passengers per ship, per year.
