Jon Goldberg's journey as a glass artist started with a class at a local hot shop and has led to the founding and continued operating of the largest public-access glassblowing studio in Philadelphia.

Goldberg combines techniques from different schools of glass-craft (kiln-forming, blowing and cold-working) to create functional and sculptural objects inspired by patterns found in nature. His art balances minimalist form with intricate multi-layered coloration, incorporating the unique optical qualities of glass. Goldberg creates his work in series, allowing evolution as new ideas are introduced and techniques are combined in different ways.
