This weekend in Red Wing, MN

Discover the art of mosaics in a welcoming beginner class where participants learn the essentials through a complete, hands-on project. Each person creates a mosaic wall panel that can be given as a gift, used as a trivet for a favorite pie, or displayed on a wall. The session moves through three clear stages that build skills step by step, starting with design and layout alongside tile cutting, continuing with how to adhere pieces and transfer a design, and finishing with practical grouting guidance for a clean result. Closed toe shoes are required for safety. The class is guided by Caron, a Minnesota public artist who has focused on mosaics for more than a decade. Highlights of Caron’s work include a collaboration with Mercedes Austin on two ten foot mosaic murals installed in the main terminal of Minneapolis St. Paul International Airport. Caron draws inspiration from the light within individuals and a commitment to connecting communities through art.
