About the event
In  this course, you'll learn about the best materials for exterior mosaic  art and help create mosaic "strips" to fill in the many cracks in  downtown Bethel's sidewalks. We'll use colorful tiles, in the indirect  method, to make mosaics in the shape of particular cracks; they'll be  installed in the summer. Play a part in making our streets a bit more  functional and a lot more beautiful!
In  2022, Dayna opened Day Breaks Glass Studio in her town of Bethel,  Vermont after 20 years of professional work in stained glass and Mosaic  arts. The studio runs a large curriculum of courses in stained glass and  mosaic art and hosts guest artists sharing their handcrafting skills.
