Activities at Atsitsa Bay, Greece

Mosaics with Roz Wates

Sat 1 - Sat 8 Jul 2023

In this course you'll learn how to make a mosaic that you can take home with you.

It's fun, creative, absorbing, and very sociable: an ideal activity for those hot summer days! We'll cover classic mosaic styles, and students will gain a thorough grounding in skills and techniques, although the emphasis of the course is on individual creativity.

Both beginners and experienced mosaicists are welcome on the course.
