Mosaic Summer/Autumn School (5 days)

Join us in the studio for five blissful days of mosaic! Open to both beginners and those with experience, this course offers a great choice of projects and techniques. The possibilities are endless – table tops, splash backs, terracotta pots, paving slabs…

Throughout the week there will be talks, demonstrations and lots of happy making time. Peter will offer design and technical advice to the group or on an individual basis. Try your hand at different styles using a range of beautiful materials. Tackle one large project or experiment with several smaller ones.

“Thank you once again, for the most enjoyable time I had on your course. As ever, the tuition (and food!) were superb”

Tutor: Peter Massey MA (RCA)

Peter and Alison are the founders of Zantium Studios, a creative partnership specialising in mosaic. Graduating from The Royal College of Art in 1994, Peter originally worked as an illustrator for clients such as Ladybird Books and The Natural History Museum. He developed a strong interest in mosaic and Zantium was established in 1998.

“Peter was friendly, patient and nothing was ever too much trouble”
