Piece by Piece welcomed back visiting artist Monica Currie-Johnson in September to inspire participants and teach a workshop using stacked glass in thinset.

In a world where art holds the potential to heal, connect, and empower, Piece by Piece is on a mission to transform lives through the simple yet profound act of creation.

In June, artist instructor Tracey Corinne taught a series of workshops focusing on installation techniques. Practicing these different methods builds skills that help artists make decisions on their future projects both in design and practicality. 

My father, Richard, has been coming to Piece by Piece's Creative Forces Mosaic Classes since the moment he saw the flyer up at the VA last year. He has raved about it since the first class and it was all he wanted to talk about.

To kick off the new year, instructor Ellen Dinerman led a workshop on making clay reliefs, experimenting in particular with texture and glazes. “Participants really enjoyed the clay relief project. The studio was so quiet with everyone working away; learning to carve clay and making various textures,” said instructor Ellen.
