Cosmos in Glass mosaic by instructor Bonnie Fitzgerald

Get an introduction to the ancient art of mosaics in a class with a contemporary twist and theme. Look to the heavens for inspiration in creating a fine-art glass mosaic based on images of the cosmos from the Hubble Telescope and NASA.

Students are guided through the complete process of working in the direct method of mosaic-making using stained glass and other glass products. In addition to creating a beautiful art object, learn the nuances of working with stained glass in mosaics, including cutting techniques, sourcing and preparation of materials and fabrication methods.

Open to all skill levels, returning students may work independently on works of their choice.
