Introduction to Mosaics Weekend

Come and try your hand at making a mosaic wall plaque!

Working with a pre-made form you will learn to trace the patterns onto glass, before learning to cut and refine the pieces with a grinder. You will also use glass tiles to create accents and learn how to use mosaic cutters to shape them. Participants will then use the direct method to create a mosaic.

Once dried participants will grout and then finally learn to clean their mosaics ready to take home. It will need to be stored inside for 1–2 weeks while the grout cures, then it can be displayed outside

Session times:

The class will run in two sessions to allow for drying time between processes:

Session 1: 10:30am–3:30pm Saturday (includes break for lunch with catering provided)
Session 2: 10:30am–12:30 or until project is finished on Sunday (some participants may finish their projects earlier)

Lunch will be provided on the first day using all local organic produce and catered for any dietary requirements you may have. We also provide you with a divine treat on the second day and tea and coffee facilities are available throughout the course. We anticipate that participants will be completed in time to check out one of our great local cafes for a late lunch on Sunday.
