  The GlueX experiment located at Jefferson Lab studies the spectrum of hadrons
using photoproduction on a LH$_2$ target in a wide variety of final states.
With its detector system capable of measuring neutral and charged final state
particles over almost the full solid angle, and very good particle
identification capabilities, GlueX can measure many different hadrons
containing strangeness. A linearly polarized photon beam allows the measurement
of polarization observables, which contain information about the production
mechanisms involved in generating strange particles in photoproduction. In
addition, GlueX can perform precise cross-section measurements, which help to
study the spectrum of strange hadrons. In this presentation, the GlueX
experiment is introduced, and recent progress of its strangeness program is
discussed. We present recent results on $\Sigma^0$ beam asymmetries,
$\Lambda$(1520) spin-density matrix elements and ongoing studies of the
$\Lambda$(1405) lineshape. We also present our recent progress on measurements
of $\Lambda\bar\Lambda$ and $\Xi^{(*)}$ photoproduction. Also, future prospects
for strangeness measurements at GlueX are discussed.
