Mosaic Workshop

Instructed by Susan Zipper

Registration REQUIRED for this 2-week class.

All events are tentatively scheduled and may change. Please see the CMCL Events Calendar on our website, follow us on social media, and subscribe to our weekly eNewsletter for any and all updates.

Join us for a 2-week class to learn the basic techniques of mosaics while creating a unique, personal art piece. Each project will be designed by the student with input from the instructor.

Students must bring a piece of their choice to work on - examples include a mirror, picture frame, tray, plates, rocks, or even a small piece of furniture like a chair.

Students are also requested to bring paper towels, newspaper, soft rags, a coffee can, and a hammer to class. Dress in old clothes. Mastic plus grout and mosaic pieces will be provided. Each student should also gather a shoe box of "findings" i.e. broken china, mirror, buttons, etc. 

This is a 2-class series, occurring on Thursdays from 1pm-4:30pm at the Court House Library:

• May 1st
• May 8th

All registrants are required to attend the first class of a series. If absent, your spot will be given to the next in line on the Waitlist.

Susan Zipper - Born in the United Kingdom to an Air Force family, I was fortunate enough to have been exposed to a number of places to call home. Finally settling in Cape May County in 1972. I began to study the art form of mosaics, eventually creating various pieces to exhibit and sell. It was then that I discovered that not only could I produce mosaics but that the medium was perfect for my creative nature and desire to explore ideas. It was also a way to be conscious of the environment and use many recyclable materials, keeping the costs of making art affordable and available.
