Mosaic Art Workshops – Exploring Materials, Design and Traditional Techniques

Mosaic Workshops Led by Liron Moyal – Artist & Mosaic Practitioner

Suitable for 18+

Our mosaic workshops are led by Liron Moyal, a professional artist and mosaic practitioner with specialist training in mosaic techniques and extensive experience delivering creative workshops for diverse communities.

Through her artistic practice, Liron introduces participants to the creative and practical process of designing and creating mosaic artworks using a variety of traditional mosaic materials, including ceramic, glass, mirror, porcelain, natural stone and recycled tesserae.

Participants explore the complete mosaic-making journey, from developing an initial design and selecting materials to cutting, arranging, fixing and finishing their artwork. Workshops include practical techniques such as working with different surfaces, applying suitable adhesives, understanding material properties, and using traditional cement-based grouting methods to achieve a professional finish.

Projects can include decorative mirrors, mosaic frames, wooden coasters, glass vases, ceramic pieces and other bespoke artworks, allowing participants to experiment with colour, texture and composition while developing confidence in their own creativity.

Each workshop combines artistic exploration with hands-on skill development, creating an inclusive and inspiring environment where participants can learn traditional mosaic techniques while producing a unique piece of artwork to take home.
