Create A Mosaic
CCOM 1046
Come and learn the ins and outs of creating a mosaic piece of art. In this one day course you will have a chance to learn a bit about the history of mosaic making around the world and what materials and designs are used traditionally and in contemporary works. Using mosaic tools and gorgeous glass and ceramic tiles, each person will design and cut a mosaic of their own to take home at the end of the course. No experience in art is necessary. Just come and play with the beautiful textures and colours of the tiles and see what happens!
A material fee of $20 per participant - paid to the instructor - will cover all supplies for your mosaic.
