Glass Mosaic Class

The Chicago Institute of Fine Finishes is excited to have Tom Snyder of Designer Glass Mosaics in Charlotte, North Carolina with us to teach his 3 day Glass Mosaic Class. The class will take place from September 20th to the 22nd . The cost for the class will be $595.00, and will include all materials except for safety glasses.

This class will provide you with all the knowledge that you will need to begin using glass as a medium. During the class, Tom will cover all elements from how to cut tiles, patterning and design work, working on different surfaces from vases to plywood, tools, adhesives, and how to grout. As Tom describes it “everything from soup to nuts.”

The end goal of the class is to finish a project of the students choosing during the 3 days. Students are able to create either flat or 3 dimensional projects. Before the start of the class, Tom will contact each student to discus what type of project that they will create and select tile colors that Tom will bring to the class.

Tom Snyder has been working in the industry for the past 10 years, and has taught over 400 artisans during his career. His work graces not only homes, but local galleries as well, and several of his pieces have won awards. Although Tom does some artwork, he continues to keep home décor as his focus.

Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to learn the art of glass mosaics from one of the masters. Reserve your space today this class is going to fill up fast!
