Creative Reuse: Mixed Media Mosaics - $90

  • ReBuilding Center 3625 N Mississippi Ave Portland, OR, 97227 United States (map)

This class is taught by local artist Pam Consear from All Hands Art!

How do you get the beauty of mosaic without the mess and dust of grouting? I’ll show you in this one-day Stained Glass Mosaics workshop! You’ll learn how to safely cut glass and mirror, then use the pieces (along with hardware bits, baubles, and beads) to create stunning little works of art on a small panel or picture frame. All materials will be provided, but you are welcome to bring your stash of broken jewelry or other small doodads to incorporate into your piece.

Topics covered:

  • How to safely cut glass and mirror, including when to use a rotary cutter, and when a scoring tool and running pliers are preferred

  • How to arrange your pieces of glass and mirror into a design of your choosing (Design help is available!)

  • Ideas for using hardware bits, baubles, beads, pebbles, and other small objects to enhance your art piece

  • Which types of adhesives are appropriate for which materials

  • Inspiration for future projects to make on your own

Skill level: For ages 18+ as well as 16 and 17 year-olds with parent or guardian permission; no art background is required.

Price: $90 General Admission / $20 Scholarship
