In this hands-on workshop participants will learn to create art by assembling small pieces of clay tile, glass, or other materials to form a design. Students will learn how to design a mosaic pattern, cut and shape their chosen materials, adhere everything to a base, and then grout the finished project to fill in the spaces. This class is suitable for all skill levels, even beginners with no prior art experience. All necessary supplies will be provided to create a finished piece to take home and display.
