  Introduction to Mosaics - Flower Pots

  Let's play with shapes, tile, glass, and grout!

  We are really excited to host our first mosaics class in the Glass Studio.

  This is a two-part class. In the first session you will learn about preparing your flower pot substrate, different types of adhesive and will build your mosaic design.

  In the second session you will learn how to address irregular or sharp edges in your tesserae, finish and grout your pot.  No prior experience necessary.  Just bring your imagination.

  By the end of this class, students will understand how to:

  • prepare a ceramic substrate
  • select an appropriate adhesive
  • design your placement of tesserae
  • address minor points and imperfections
  • grout your final design

  Cost (includes materials)

  Members: $75

  Non-yet Members: $90

  
  

  Dates: Saturdays, April 1 & 8. 1:00p - 4:00p
