About

Create a beautiful mosaic panel as you are introduced to the basics of creating and grouting indoor mosaics out of vitreous glass tiles and/or stained glass scraps or small glass gems. We will discuss materials, design, cutting, setting on a base, grouting as well as the difference between indoor versus outdoor mosaics.

Students take home a completed 12" x 12" flat panel piece using glass elements they have chosen which may be used as a trivet or hung on a wall. No tools are required by students. Students may bring their own small glass elements for possible inclusion in their piece. 

The Glass studio provides tools, glasses, gloves, and dust masks for personal safety.
