Mosaic Workshops with Jeanette Brossart

Details
Join us to make your mark on Camden County's newest public art display! Jeannette Brossart from Mother Nature Mosaics will be on-site to guide everyone through the process of creating a large-scale mosaic mural. Using photos from last year's Camden County Photo Contest, together we will create a unique artwork that truly encapsulates Camden County.
 
The goal of each session is to lay colorful glass tiles in a pre-drawn arrangement. We will be working on one of the four total panels, under the guidance of an expert mosaic artist. Once complete, these panels will go on display in the Camden County Public Library. Don't miss this opportunity to express yourself, learn a new skill, and make Camden County an even more beautiful place!
