Packbasket Adventures and Master Mosaic Artist and Teacher Ippy Farnam invite you to join us for a Translucent Mosaic Window Workshop Weekend!

Students will leave inspired, refreshed and with a beautiful creation.

In this introductory workshop for creatives aged 13+, you will explore the ins and outs of glass mosaics as you create a framed decorative glass-on-glass window!

Over the span of the weekend, Ippy will cover:

  • what makes a mosaic a mosaic
  • tools used in the mosaic process
  • design consideration
  • glass cutting techniques
  • safety basics
  • gluing and grouting methods

On Saturday you will learn about techniques and processes while designing and laying out your creation.

After Sunday's nourishing and delicious breakfast, Ippy will demonstrate the grouting process and assist/supervise as you grout your own pieces.

If you are still manifesting your creation on Sunday, no problem! You will receive grouting supplies to finish your piece at home.
