The Chicago Mosaic School, Chicago

The Chicago Mosaic School is the first and only not-for-profit mosaic arts school in the world dedicated to advancing the fine art of both classical and contemporary mosaic art. The Chicago Mosaic School is now in a state-of-the-art facility in Edgewater, located at 1127 W Granville Ave, offering excellence in mosaic education led by world-class artists teaching renowned methods to professional and aspiring students.

In our popular Mosaic Basics Workshop, participants begin with a brief tour of The Chicago Mosaic School and the Gallery of Contemporary Mosaics. Students are shown a variety of examples of both ancient and contemporary mosaics, as well as receive an introduction to mosaic tools, techniques, and materials. Students will create their own personalized 4” x 4” mosaic to take home and show off! Participants leave with new knowledge, skills and an appreciation for this ancient art form!

Templates for designs are provided, but individual art is encouraged!
