Mosaic Classes and Workshops 2021
Studio Workshops and Courses take place at:
Unit 6, Hartley Business Centre, Hucknall Road, Sherwood, Nottingham, NG5 1FD
Studio Workshops
House Numbers and Mirrors
Tuesday 27th July 10-4pm
Come and make a unique house number that will last in all weather, or a beautiful mirror for your home.
Garden Mosaics
Saturday 14th August 10-4pm
If you want to make a bird bath, a stepping stone, or decorate a plant pot this is the workshop for you!
Each workshop is £80 (or £75 per person for whole group bookings)
Included in the cost is an array of materials for your chosen project including the traditional glass tesserae in over 40 shades as well as ceramic tiles and an abundance of crockery, china, mirror and more. Grouting will need to be done later when your mosaic is dry, but a class demo and written instructions along with the grout will be given to take home. Some participants come with a definite idea of what they would like to make while others like to be guided - I encourage people to let me know in advance if they have something in mind so that I can be prepared.
Workshops take place in my large, bright and airy 1st floor studio, which has plenty of parking and a goods lift (the door is heavy so let me know if help is needed). A maximum of 6 students with table screens for those sitting opposite.
Also included are bottled or canned drinks and a variety of individually sealed snacks. Please bring your lunch and a flask if you prefer hot drinks.

Monday Mosaics Evening Classes
Coming soon...
These sessions are suitable for absolute beginners who are looking to learn a new skill from scratch along with regular and returning students who enjoy the feedback, and camaraderie of the group. Many students have found that this is precious time and space carved out in the busy week to immerse oneself in ongoing projects or experiment with new techniques.
Natural and found materials seem to be an emerging theme!
Come with your own designs and ideas or be guided through a project.
Price includes materials (unless extra large or unusual!) also bottled or canned drinks and a variety of individually sealed snacks. Please bring a flask if you prefer hot drinks.
To book or for more information email sophie.robins@yahoo.co.uk
