MOSAICS: Creating Detailed Designs
This is a 3 day class using fiberglass mesh to create more detailed designs. Two sessions to complete a design, and the 3rd day to grout.
Day 1
Creating a design and transferring to paper.
Learning how to assemble the mesh on top of the image.
Placing shards on top of the mesh and securing the design ready for grouting.
Day 2
You will continue to perfect your skills in cutting the ceramic, refining edges with sand and paper and learning how to use the grinder. The mesh has an adhesive quality, which means one can place down, but change or move it easily if necessary.
Because this is a more detailed image, I have allowed two sessions to complete the design.
Day 3
Grouting (Filling the gaps between individual mosaic tiles)
My workshop is not large, only 2 to 3 women at a time, which gives a very personalised experience.
*All materials will be supplied.
Dates : Dec 11th,12th and 13th
Day 1 9:30a.m. till 2 p.m.
Day 2 9:30a.m. till 11:30 a.m.
Day 3 9:30 a.m. till completion of grouting
Cost: $125 or $100 for NWC Members
Women's Centre , 44 Trafalgar Street, Nelson.

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
