GoggleWorks Center for the Arts Reviews

I love the lofts!! If I lived near I'd come as often as possible and try to collaborate with the art makers there.

Great place. I went there for a Christmas angels party and it was a blessing to see all those children.

Very nice place and artwork. Very historic.
We attended a wedding here and it wasn t real big but it turned out nice.

Love Goggleworks! Talented artists, cool classes, and a fun shop full of handcrafted and/or unique gifts (great local Christmas shopping). Even had our daughters 5th birthday party there and it was terrific.

I was like a young kid again looking at the wonderful talent to see right here in reading Pa thank you to all and everyone to bring me here

I didn't even know this place existed till I took a group. It's extremely cool that an old Goggle Factory has been converted into an art center, GREAT WAY to save a building.

Beautiful art gallery. And the 2nd floor has a lovely rustic space for a wedding reception.

Because they explain very well what you want to know

Excellent gallery! So many neat things going on here!!!

The place arts created. History about the goggle made for first time. Very quiet and clean. There's cafetaria and outdoor / indoor seating too. Very relaxing.

There is nothing to even compare Goggleworks to. Mind blown everytime!

Excellent Art Gallery, studio spaces. Art EVERYWHERE!! Creative & inspiring!

My favorite place is Reading, full of great people and lots to see and do

I love this place great art can't wait to see it again

This place has something for everyone , all ages ,all the artists,its a must see!!!! Its free admission too

A maze of interesting artworks, with many opportunities to get involved!

The culture of a museum and the education for the arts.

This place is awesome, very calm and entertaining. I walked in just to kill time and ended up staying looking at the great pieces of art.

Had an amazing time there! The vr class was fun and informative.

Had a bridal shower there. Was a great place. The staff was great and everything went so smoothly. All had a wonderful time.

Great place if your looking for artists. Less so if your looking for exhibits. Still great.

Low key yet very professional presentation of local art and artists. Plus little known but interesting visiting artists, from all over the world. There is usually something of interest in the galleries downstairs, and you can always go upstairs and wander around the studios and see all of the artwork presented by the artist, often personally in attendance. They have a little bar downstairs with local spirits and Brews. They have food, but I haven't tried it yet. Goggleworks is without a doubt one of the key elements of the local culture.

Paintings are a very unique style and make sure to check out Sybil Thompson's artwork because it is really amazing .

Did a project with daughter there. Nice enough place.

It has lot of art work and has a after school program for kids. It also has a snack bar that you can order from .1

Awesome old building with art, they have many classes great place for a wedding.

A great mix of outsider art and traditional art. Cool old building with onsite working artists in their studios.

We went to the movie theater to see the documentary Maiden. Great story. Comfortable seating. Enjoyable evening.

Terrific place for Arts and Culture and venue's. One of the high points of the city of Reading

We drive up here from Philadelphia for a wedding, so I can only offer limited advice. The GoggleWorks Center is a very interesting place with hallways lined with art. It seems like an cool place although we were unable to explore it thoroughly. If I lived closer I would definitely check it out.

As for the wedding, it was beautiful. The location was well kept, friendly staff and the industrial design made for very interesting and unique setting.

LOVE

Great place for this related to fine arts. BYC Berks Youth Chorus is an AWESOME organization. Plus countless music teachers, and Berks Ballet! Plus wood work, pottery and glass! Great museum to walk around!

Had a great time in the Wood Shop learning how to make a wooden bowl! It was a creative experience!

Amazing art, the building its self is beautiful, the artists who are working in the studios are willing to answer any questions for art "beginners".

Beautiful location for any event, wonderful event staff, I look forward to going again!

We took a Welding with Found Objects class. The class was enjoyable and the instructor, Tim, was superb. He had lots of patience with us as beginners and was great at explaining the process to us. He also stayed much longer than the official end time to help us finish our projects.

I cannot speak much to the location, itself, for I only attended a convention here. I'm not even sure what this building is for. However, the convention was phenomenal.

The staff are friendly and I really enjoy the exhibits and classes.

Hopefully next year we can go back to the Pumpkin Palooza of prior years. While the store is worth a visit, the event does not compare.

Very diverse location with great space for all forms of art, music, sculpture, ballet facilities as well as offices for community organizations. Site is home office of PA Snowsports Museum & other great cultural groups. Nice cafe & movie theater are also on site. Where else can you see a artist version of a sub? See photo.

The theatre is comfortable and the selection is more indie than mainstream

A bit cold but the place has lots of place for rent for different venues

The building used to be a factory. It is huge (easy to get lost in). Downstairs is Goggleworks Art Museum. Upstairs there are small museums and office space for various businesses. Apparently there are community rooms as well. A 16 year old girl was having a lovely birthday party and someone was getting married. I'm thankful that the building has been renovated, as it is a positive outlet for people to go to spend the day.

I love it! You can walk right by the artist's studios.

I like it here because they show different types of movies you cannot find in other theaters. Sometimes they have discussion groups after the movie. Also it is great place for art and culture & to see the artists at work.

Just wish they had butter for the popcorn. :) Glad they program the movies that they do!

Always new art to see, new people to meet and a great place for a date, lunch, classes, etc.

Enjoyed my visit, will return and watch for classes

This place is amazing! Great family fun and it s awesome to meet and greet local artists. Such a great experience!

Neat place! I'm not big into art and I still think this place is cool. What I would like to do some time is see whatever movie they have in their theatre there as it is usually an indie movie and I am really into indie movies.

Great place for classes, exhibits, and taking in local culture.

Awesome place for everyone of all ages. My family and I love it here.

Very nice to visit. Incredible community art resource. Posting from my last visit. Happy dog of artist & 2 pieces from latest exhibit
