Mosaic Goddess Workshop

Instructor: Corinne McKeown

Saturday, September 13

12:00 - 4:00 pm 

These mosaic Goddess totems are so fun!  Using a vibrant assortment of cut porcelain and ceramics, you will create your 9 inch mosaic and watch all of the colors and patterns and shapes come together.  You can select from a variety of adornments and choose a special headdress.  If you have a favorite plate that has cracked or an heirloom not being used, you can bring it to incorporate into your artwork. These mosaics make a wonderful gift for someone else or yourself! Being creative is a great way to express self-love.
