A1-1: Acrylic Tile Mosaic Art Project

For thousands of years, mosaics have been part of interior spaces. Their start can be traced back to primitive man's simple arrangements of pebbles into patterns, describing a direction or message. The techniques gradually developed throughout history - from decorative floor and wall surfaces in villas and cathedrals to the modern expression of mosaics as art. Mosaics can be described as the art of decorating a surface with designs made up of small, closely placed pieces. Over a two-part session, participants will be guided as they create a unique mosaic piece using modern materials and techniques to replicate the look of traditional mosaic in their artwork. Please note that we will not be completing everything in one sitting, but over the course of two separate sessions everything will be complete. All supplies and materials provided for $25 per participant. Registrations are limited to 12 participants. A waitlist will be available if necessary.

Purpose: Create a mosaic piece of art using modern materials and techniques over two sessions
