[THIS WORKSHOP IS NOW FULL, HOWEVER YOU MAY STILL REGISTER TO BE PLACED ON A WAITING LIST]

Mosaics is the ancient process of making pictures or designs by inlaying small bits of colored tile in mortar. Their solidity, resistance to moisture, durability, and colorfastness make mosaics perfect for practical uses and spectacular in their color and beauty. The possibilities are endless with simple, easy-to-learn mosaic tiling! We'll learn some basic history about mosaics, how to cut both ceramic and glass tile, form a design, adhere the tile to a surface, and grout it into place. No artistic experience is necessary!

Paul Heath has a BFA from the University of Utah in Drawing and Painting, and has been a self-employed artist and teacher of art for 24 years. Louise Fischman earned a BFA from Pratt Institute and is a long-time teacher of art in the schools and therapeutic art in hospitals and treatment facilities. Paul and Louise have studied at the Mosaic School in Ravenna, Italy; and both have co-designed and executed numerous public art projects using mosaic tiling, including artwork along the Jordan River Parkway.
