Eco Mosaic Workshop

Service Description

Come join me in the studio space at the Village & Co Shop in Wheathampsted for an afternoon of mosaic making loveliness. In celebration of Susfest organised by Sustainable St Albans, a charity which aims to make the St Albans district a more environmentally sustainable place to live the theme for my workshop is Recycle Repurpose Reuse. During the workshop you'll be supported in creating a successful design using tesserae which will include a selection of donated crack and chipped crockery and china as well as glass and ceramic tiles that were surplus materials left over from people's home improvement projects. You'll learn how to snip and place your tiles onto your chosen substrate using tile nippers and explore the technique of picassiette. All materials will be provided and complementary teas, coffee and biccies will be provided. Audrey will give a demonstration on how to grout during the session and you'll be given grout and step by step instructions to take away with you at the end of the day. Places are limited, half the size of my usual classes due to the size of the space so it'll be cosy, friendly and super welcoming. So if you think you might fancy it, book yourself a place! My workshops are usually attended by adults but is open to young people who are keen to attend with a participating adult and who will be happy to participate for the duration (guide age 11 years+).
