The ancient art of Mosaics is traced back over 4,000 years to Mesopotamia! Mosaics is the art of arranging small colored pieces of hard material, such as stone, tile, or glass. These materials are proven to withstand time. Venture to historic cities like Rome and Athens and you can still walk across the same mosaic flooring from thousands of years ago!

The Mosaic Classes at The Glass Bar are committed to keeping the art of Mosiacs alive! Our trusted instructor, Wendy Birchmire, has been working in mosaics for over 10 years, and is ready to share her technique

Beginner/Intermediate Mosaic Class – 6 Weeks
Join us for a 6-week journey into the timeless art of mosaics! In this class, students will explore both traditional and modern mosaic techniques to create stunning, one-of-a-kind pieces.

For Beginners:
You'll start by working with precut stained glass to create a beautiful trivet, a perfect introductory project. Materials for this "practice project" are just $10. Once completed, you'll advance to using more intricate tools such as wheeled glass nippers, breakers, pistol grip glass cutters, and grozers—preparing you for your next exciting project.

For Intermediate Students:
You'll have the freedom to choose your own project, working with traditional materials like tiles, penny rounds, and beads, as well as stained glass. Feel free to bring personal items—like shells, buttons, or pictures—to incorporate into your design for a truly personalized masterpiece.

Project Options:
Choose from a variety of items to mosaic, such as glass vases, trays (small or large), picture frames, coasters, mirrors, or even a gazing ball. Material costs will vary depending on the size of your project, ranging from $5 (for a coaster) to $40 for larger items.
This class is the perfect mix of relaxation, creativity, and hands-on learning—ideal for both beginners and those looking to expand their mosaic skills!
