Meet Chloe Jones, one of the artist vendors joining us at the MassArt Night Market!

A 2026 MassArt BFA graduate in Glass, Chloe creates sculptural jewelry and objects in glass, including intricate glass chains, colorful gauges, necklaces, pendants, and her signature glass dragons. 🐉

Chloe’s work brings together glassblowing and flameworking, engineering glass to push its limits, test its strength and structural integrity, and create profound objects. She quickly discovered a love for teaching at NOCA Glass School, and her skills in teaching and flameworking have led her to a residency at Sandwich Glass Museum. You can follow her on Instagram .

Come meet Chloe and more than 100 MassArt students and alumni bringing original artwork, fashion, jewelry, ceramics, prints, home goods, and handcrafted pieces to Downtown Crossing. This event is made possible with support from Downtown Boston.
