Mosaic Tile Arts

Throughout ancient Greece, Rome, and the Middle East, mosaic art has decorated churches and important buildings for millennia. Lonai will teach students how to decorate their object (such as a picture frame, pot, or plate) with mosaic tiles. They will learn how to create and layout a design, cut and nip tesserae, and apply grout to complete the piece. Everyone leaves with a finished work of art featuring a design of their choice. These make wonderful personalized handmade gifts. For all ages.
