GLASS
Through the Lens of an Artist
Step into an immersive exhibition where history and glass artistry come together in a captivating way.
Darren Goodman's transformative glasswork invites you to explore the intersection of personal growth and historical narratives- from Ohio and even beyond. As you move through the exhibit, you'll discover not just artifacts from the past but how Darren’s evolving artistry mirrors broader cultural and historical themes.
This thoughtfully curated collection offers an engaging blend of history, science, and discovery, revealing how art can illuminate our shared heritage. Experience a unique perspective on history through the enchanting lens of Goodman’s glasswork, where every piece tells a story.
