FUN WITH Mosaics!
In These Mosaic classes we do a combination of different types of Mosaics:
*Mixed Media
*Mosaics on a Backer Board (Heart, Tree, Garden Creature, etc.)
*Stepping Stone
*Garden Pots & Trays
*Coming Soon: GOG Mosaics (Glass on Glass)
See Individual Classes for more Information & what's included.
*Classes at Studio are small (Usually 2-4 people) to ensure individual attention.
*Most Mosaic projects are completed in several parts:
Planning the Design, Adhering Items to a Base, then Grouting.
*A "Grouting Party" may follow another day to teach student how to Grout & finish off their mosaic creation. Students may also Grout their piece the same day, depending on the Class; however this is rare.
Advanced Registration/Payment is REQUIRED for ALL Classes so that Materials and Class Prep can be Readied for each Attending Student. Please see Questions for Policy Info.
