Looking for unique things to do in Canberra? Join this stained glass mosaic art workshop with Merlin Mosaica!
This workshop is suitable for complete beginners, although more experienced mosaicists can work on a more complex design. In this course, you'll learn how to create a stained glass panel suitable for hanging inside. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Did you know that mosaics is one of the oldest forms of art known to man. Many consider it to be a craft - it can be either an art, or a craft - just depends on your viewpoint!
Course Timing
Saturday 10am - 4pm : You will be working on a design and shaping and applying stained glass to the panel.
Sunday 9:30 am - noon : We will be grouting the panel using a super-smooth cement grout. Your panel is ready to take home and display! Alternatively, you can elect to take a grout pack home on the Saturday, and grout in your own time.

Merlin Mosaica is a mosaic retail store selling all things for glass mosaic across Australia (and internationally). It is the creative outlet for Ali Howson, who will be your teacher and guide in these workshops.
I have been an artist for as long as I can remember. As a painter I have exhibited in Melbourne, and regional NSW.
My key driver is a love and understanding of colour & texture.
I have collected glass for many years, and have visited glass factories in Venice.
I made my first mosaic in 2005.  My material of choice is stained glass.
After many years in IT, I decided to engage in my passion for colour and glass, and want to share my love of this medium with others
