mosaic workshop

Saturday 23/9 to Saturday 16/12 2023 | 11.30 - 13.00

The ancient art of mosaic, or ‘the art of patience’, requires concentration, precision and lots of enthusiasm. One such unique workshop is to start at Fougaro, with special, beautiful designs for participants to choose and apply, using coloured tesserae to ‘paint’ each their own decorative tableau.
