I enjoyed so much coming every Thursday to hang out with the group and to discover the artsy part of me that I never though I had on me. So, yes, I'd recommend it to anyone!

I loved this experience. The people were lovely, the atmosphere was relaxed and I really enjoyed making a mosaic. I would like to go back soon!

Really great place to learn Mosaic, lots of material to hand really enjoyed it, would go again

Good intro to cutting tiles and glass, and flexible approach from the tutors, who are artists so have a hood eye for creating stuff. The only thing I think they missed was safety info; they seemed to not be very into the idea of people wearing protective glasses and didn't let anyone know where the first aid kit was; a few people had minor cuts and I felt they were slightly too relaxed about the health and safety aspects - there were no serious injuries but it would be really easy for a bit of glass shoots into someones eye in this environment.

An absolutely wonderful experience all round.  A fantastic environment, warm welcome and very well organised.  Enough instruction to  safely get started and proactive encouragement and help to ensure we all got a really nice result to take home.  Materials were plentiful,  the atmosphere was supportive and enthusiastic - I didn’t want to leave!100% recommend and also an very chuffed with my mosaic tile!

Really enjoyed my mosaic  taster session. Lots of choice and really helpful guidance meant that I left with a mosaic that I’m really happy with. The session was run alongside the longer 5 or 10 week classes so was nice to see what is achievable with a bit more time/expertise.

Great session. Learned how to cut tiles for mosaic making, and then had time  to make own design on a tile, well supported by the teacher, and with plenty of colourful and beautiful resources available. Finished it at home - am so excited - it looks great ! Thanks for this experience !

Did the taster mosaic and tile making class and it was so much fun! Everyone was super friendly, the people doing the longer courses are also there and you get to see the cool stuff they have been doing which is quite encouraging.! Eli the teacher is a total vibe, making you feel comfortable to explore your creativity yet guiding you when needed without feeling like you’re an outcast as it’s your first time. 
Thouroughly enjoyed it and will definitely be back. Thank you!!

I really enjoyed this mosaic class. There was a friendly atmosphere and the session was well facilitated. It was my first time trying mosaic making but still managed to go home with a lovely handmade gift that I was really pleased with! It was a fun evening!

Lovely evening and lots of materials to choose from.
One more hour would have been great:)

An enjoyable  and supported first time mosaic experience.  There is an abundance of materials to choose from and be creative with.  Great to see the different  projects being worked on in the class. I plan to return to complete a larger mosaic/tile project.

I really enjoyed the class, and I'm really pleased with the mosaic tile I made! The course leader was encouraging and helpful, with just the right amount of tuition to get us started. I was also able to use some shells I'd brought with me. I'd hoped to make a photo frame but a mosaic tile was the only option - I didn't mind, so I didn't feel the need to ask if we could make any other item. There were plenty of materials and colours available, with books for inspiration. It helped to have an idea of the colours and design I wanted to make beforehand. The glass of wine and snacks were a bonus and the venue is great. It's worth noting that there's not time to grout your design (and you'd want the glue to dry beforehand anyway) so you are given a little grouting kit to do it at home.

Funclass, great guidance by the teacher and the tea/biscuits/wine were a nice touch. Very recommended

Amazing class, great teacher and very lovely and creative atmosphere, I loved it!

fun class, lovely teacher, very pleased with the result!  Would recommend this class. Venue is nice too.

I have been first time in mosaic class. Very good and friendly atmosphere. Glass of wine and I started create my own mosaic. I am absolutely relaxed and forgot about my problems. I liked class. It was really good experience to feell your talants.

Really enjoyed the class. Something a little different to my usual Tuesday evening!

Lots of different types of tiles and colours to work with and the teacher was great!

One of the best classes I have ever attended  😍❤️

Very interesting! Élie is a very good teacher which helped me improved my cutting technique almost instantly.
There is also an impressive collection of tiles to sparkle your curiosity!
I will definitely return
Anaïs

I enjoyed this class & love my mosaic tile. I was a bit rushed at the end but the tutor helped me finish my piece. At times could've done with a bit more direction. It was a lovely setting and so many bits of glass and ceramics to choose from and lots of inspiring pieces around the place!

This was a great taster session at the right level for a total beginner.  An amazing treasure trove of tiles and trinkets to use. Really enjoyable.

Had a great time yesterday! Variety of tiles, mosaics and china to choose from. Also the studio env is very nice. Great way to spend a couple of creative hours. Highly recommended!

Nice relaxed atmosphere, an enjoyable evening making mosaics!

Very clear instructions and you can get stuck in straight away. It was nice to walk away with a completed piece (you do have to grout the tile at home but this is quite straight forward). A glass of wine and some nibbles were provided which was a nice touch.

Great class and great discovery for this new hobby and/or passion. The Host was gave such a warm welcome and invited us to visit the venue.
They do such amazing projects there and I love that I pushed myself to discover all this new world.
I already a book a class for next week and invited a firend of mine to share this experience and thinking to start a proper course in September.
They also organize birthday, Hen parties.. and so may diversified activities.

I would definitely recommend to anyone! 
Marilena

The class was very good! I learnt how to cut tiles, plan a design and then glue the tiles together. I got a kit to take home and grout my piece with, then it’s all ready! I wish there was a continuation class!

Really relaxing and enjoyable, great teacher!

Good fun and a great class. It felt a little rushed at the end to get everything finished but I enjoyed my time.

Really great class I've been before and really enjoy it i'd go again

Ellie was a great trainer and took us through everything really well so that we felt confident with the skills fast. She even shared some of the work she does with local schools. It was relaxing, the music was great, and the drinks were a nice touch

Class was very good and leaned what I wanted would recommend to friends the teacher was very good and exlpaned all the way .

The class was relaxed and I feel that I received a perfect amount of direction - not helicopter teaching but there was help if needed. I'm pleased with my tile!

what a relaxing experience!Friendly and helpful tutors, huge amount of resources!

Amazing class love it and the teachers were amazing

I took my mum to the mosaics making class for a birthday present and we both had such a lovely evening. The teacher, Louise, was really friendly and enthusiastic, the studio is a beautiful inspiring space to create away an evening in. Hugely recommend!

The class was a great chance to enjoy a creative evening in an informal setting. The Tuesday evening time and location were also ideal for a post-work crafting session. A brief explanation on cutting and mosaic-ing was given, and we were then free to design and create the mosaic tile as we wished.

The class was well run, in a nice space and by a knowledgeable teacher. I would definitely recommend it for some chilled out creative time.

Great way to unwind, friendly environment, wine and snacks provided too!

Great class! Very relaxed and the teacher was really friendly and helpful :)

This was a fantastic workshop for me, a complete beginner! The teacher was great, really enthusiastic and interested in what we were making. The environment was relaxed and welcoming. I learned a lot of valuable techniques and skills in a really short amount of time. Highly recommend to anyone interested in making their own mosaic tile.

It was so nice. I enjoy a lot. My first Mosaic time in my life. So many various tile I can use. Many different colours. I have some trouble find here with City mapper. But I enjoyed class!

We were bought a taster season as a wedding gift and had a great time. The class was very relaxed and welcoming. There were loads of materials to use and the teacher was very supportive. I’d fully recommend this class

My friend and I really enjoyed the workshop. The teacher was great, really enthusiastic and interested in what we were making. She was kind enough to stay back an extra 30-40 minutes after the class, so that we could complete our mosaic tile. I will definitely recommend this class! 5 star from me!

I booked this class with a work friend and we went in totally open minded with no expectations. We were welcomed so warmly (on a freezing cold Thurs evening) by Natalie who was super friendly and offered us some drinks while we settled into our space. The introduction was so informing, easy-to-grasp and perfectly timed. We were able to get stuck in right away which was great! Natty explained the use of the tools and different types of tiles very well while reminding us of safety. We worked on creating different shapes and she assisted each one of us individually when we got stuck (which was often) and totally made us at ease when we got frustrated trying to get it right. We got to design our own tile with mosaic using our own ideas. Natty was so sweet to stay behind way past the finishing time to let us complete our mosaic and she helped us complete it to ensure we left with a complete piece as well as giving us the grout to fill in at home with full instructions. Hands down I would recommend this to anyone who wants to have a bit of fun while doing something relaxing especially after a long day at work... 11 out of 10 from me!

All levels Mosaic Classes!

Sarah Burnett-Moore

An excellent class where I made two mosaic tiles.  There in an amazing array of glass and ceramics to cut and make your design.  I haven't got round to grouting them yet but am confident that I will achieve a great result.

Bimmie Macpherson

What a great set-up! I went with a friend to the one off evening workshop. We have both come away with beautiful tiles. You are supplied with a glass of wine or a soft drink for the evening and the choice of decorative chips to break up and decorate your tile with is huge. Really loved it.

NIKI APOSTOLOPOULOU

Rachel Smyth

Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. We had a lovely glass of wine, snacks and the opportunity to explore books/mosaics to get ideas before making our own. We were able to practise, so that we felt confident when coming to mosaic our own tile.

Mariam Malaki

Well worth the money.
We were given complete freedom in the studio the use anything we wanted and make anything we wanted. Lovely experience and cannot recommend it enough. It is about enough time to make two items or one really detailed item

Joseph D'Urso

Had a great time - really good instruction and made a lovely mosaic!

Barbra Wilson

The class was sublime! This was my first experience of mosaics and there were others there who had been before and were working on their pieces. Natty, our tutor, was patient, knowledgable, very encouraging and had great snacks! The workshop was a veritable feast for the eyes with plenty of inspiration from the many mosaics displayed and the seemingly never ending supply of tiles in every single colour you could imagine. Natty’s instructions were easy to follow and she was on hand all the time. She has great energy. I came away with my own masterpiece. A great class pitched perfectly for all abilities. 

Dani Schofield

Great class! Really well organised and an excellent introduction to mosaics. Would highly recommend. 

Denisa Zajacová

This class was my introduction to Mosaic and I can say that it was more than I expected. Studio is wonderful and easy to find. In the studio there were thoughtful snacks and drinks. I very much enjoyed making mosaic and the class was quiet therapeutic. I will be back and I will be recommending this class to others.  

Jenny Blay

Lovely class. Very relaxed atmosphere... I mean what's not to love about an open, creative space with friendly people and a glass of wine!

Katie Fyrth

Amazing selection of tiles, really nice quiet atmosphere, will definitely be back!

Chiara Cori

Fun and relaxed session, I really enjoyed the hands on approach to just let creativity guide my first attempts!

Helen Ball

Great class, teacher was fab. I found it a bit challenging, and she really helped me with the vision and to get it finished in time. Great sociable thing to do with friends with a glass of wine and snacks provided too.

Malcolm Davis

Really nice atmosphere and supportive environment.

Irene Lorenzo

Wonderful class! There were so much ceramic and glass tiles to choose from and the teacher was lovely. Remember to bring a simple design in mind ahead of the class so you can get started straight away. 

Kimberley Taylor

Very relaxing class and well run. It was a nice balance of allowing your own creativity and also providing great advice. Thank you!

Lisa O’Dea

Absolutely loved this class! Really lovely venue and nice instructor, super chilled, will definitely go back! 

James Rattee

Excellent class. Really friendly and supportive group. A beautiful space.

efl isa

Great class. Many useful tips.  In one lesson you can already learn the basics to create your own mosaic. Thank you art4space!

Alina Hussain

I did a one off class during the evening (6.30pm - 9.00pm) and really enjoyed the class.
The teacher (Aliya) was absolutely lovely.  Friendly, patient and really encouraging.    The first half hour was spent practising using the cutters and how to space, and then she let us get on with our designs.

There were a few people who had been there before and were working on bigger, more intricate pieces too.

Everyone looked really happy and it was a great way to spend an evening.  I was absolutely delighted with how my creation turned out.

Art4Space was very generous with what tiles and tools you can use, and there were even refreshments on offer.

Would thoroughly recommend!

Sirena Chan

Really enjoyed the class. They had so many different tile options to choose from. The size of class was good as it gave the teacher enough time to give guidance and helpful suggestions to each individual. I would have gotten more done if I had an idea of what I wanted to create before the class. Time flies when you’re having fun!

Mia Bennett

What a wonderful class! The space is great, where you can let your creativity fly. But what made this a truly special class, was out lovely instructor. Thank you!

Nick Szilagyi

This was our first time visiting and we had a great time! None of us are particularly arty but 

Lucy Warnock

So fun! The teacher was really welcoming and wore v cool dungarees. Such a chilled atmosphere, wine and hummus, what’s not to love

Kirsten Adams

Great atmosphere and teaching. Felt well supported throughout and thrilled with the mosaic I came away with. Would definitely recommend this class and attend again.

Teresa Donoghue

This workshop was excellent. Friendly, enjoyable and immersive. So relaxing. The workshop leader was helpful, knowledgeable and encouraging. 
It was a really fun evening and excellent value for money.I will definitely return. 
Highly recommend. 

Marlen Lawrenz

Very welcoming atmosphere and excellent hands-on advice how to create your own masterpiece - how to work with the tools, different materials, composition, etc. The course length is sufficient to create something amazing, even as a complete beginner. I really enjoyed doing my mosaic - it's like doing a jigsaw puzzle but better! And it's all for a good cause, too. Keep up the good work!

Dominika Hoffmann

Great workshop. I really enjoyed the Mosaic  Class. Fantastic teacher and a nice place. Highly recommended!

This class was wonderful. The course leader was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. The Covid measures were excellent. The range of resources to choose from was extensive. 
I attended with my daughter and we enjoyed doing a creative activity together. 
I was so absorbed in creating my mosaic that all my stress disappeared. 
All that and a glass of wine too. I highly recommend this class and will be going back to do more!

Laura Irving

Great class, lovely teacher and very flexible about helping you with your ideas. Plus lots of materials to use. 

Another great class. Good to have a different teacher with different experiences to share. Very friendly. 

Joanna Drake

Really fun class with a really nice end result! I and others who had never done amy mosaic before all really enjoyed it and would recommend!

Joanna Dean

Really enjoyed the class. The teacher was helpful and I am very pleased with the end result. Thanks

Chantel Campbell

I had lovely time creating my mosaic tile  and definitely want to return for more classes.

Lovely class with great teacher. Very relaxed for total beginners or longer projects. 

It was great to return to the class and continue a project I started the first week. Once again very helpful teacher and relaxed atmosphere. 

RIHAB AZAR

It was a lovely experience and time just whooshed by. I'd suggest they minimize the instructions time to get participants to crack on quickly with making the art 🤗 

Jessie Ke

Very fun and relaxed class! Our teacher Nattie was really clear and helpful, thank you! 

JENNIFFER LEWIS

I had a wonderful experience on my initial visit and immediately signed up for the 5 session course! Mosaics is an art form that I have been wanting to have a go at for a long time and the atmosphere that the tutors, volunteers as well as the other attendess have created at Art4space has really nurtured and facilitated my creativity. My friend has also joined and completed a piece on her first visit! I have found an amazing new skill that I love.

Maxine  C

I enrolled for the one class taster session and came away with a mosaic that only needs grouting! A fantastic class, so much was achieved in just a few hours.  I will be signing up for the 5 week course.  The ethos behind Art4space is wonderful and tutors are too. 

Mihaela Popa

Barbara Kilpatrick

Really enjoyed my mosaic class, expertly led by Ellie. The studio is a fantastic space.

All levels Mosaic Classes! in Stockwell

Jenny Brandon

Fantastic class and a really well stocked workshop. I was so relaxed whilst creating my mosaic and it looks great. Really nice space, we'll set up and I look forward to going back

It was a really easy going class, with lots of freedom and the teacher was great. 
I maybe would have liked some more guidance or showing some ready made examples of mosaic's as I didn't know what to start designing! 

Nouf Mubarak

Yesterday i joined mosaic class …Its one of my favorite classes 

I attended 4 times and in each and every time i learn something new and a different technique in using the tiles 

In my last class the teacher was Bitty 
She is very welcoming and helpful and I would like to attend another class with her

Most people are finding themselves sometimes with extra time on their hands… what better way to spend it than by learning a new skill and  socialising with new people 🌺

Christine Gauci

Great class, lovely staff and so enjoyable. Made some lovely items with guidance and enjoyed all the plentiful resources to be found in the studio. Highly recommend.

Ruby Kellard

Lovely evening spent mosaic-ing. John was so welcoming and taught us a lot of useful skills! Will be back soon :)

Cameron Primrose

I bought this class for myself and my partner as a gift and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. The studio space is lovely and spacious. John was our instructor and was very welcoming and friendly. The glass of wine offered was a lovely touch although I forgot to drink it as I was so engrossed in the mosaic. We're both very pleased with how the mosaics have turned out. Definitely will go back again.

Zoe Adams

Super! Such a wonderful class with excellent teachers who were really helpful and friendly. 

Cara Brown

I absolutely loved this mosaics class. Our teacher was wonderful, really friendly, helpful and encouraging. The class was very relaxed and it was a great atmosphere to work in. We were provided with all of the tools and equipment needed to create a beautiful piece of art that we were able to take home on the same day. And it's a very reasonable price for a great class and the teacher's expertise. I would happily return for another class or even sign up for the longer course. Thank you

Learn to make a unique Picassiette mosaic from broken crockery.

As seen on ITV's Katie Piper's Breakfast Show; Picassiette is a term used to describe a style of mosaic art where broken ceramics are pieced together to create something new and beautiful. Recycling is intrinsic to Picassiette, as the broken pieces can no longer be used as a plate or a vase but are repurposed to make something new and interesting. This philosophy is at the heart of what we do at Art4Space as we are always looking for ways to make art and crafts sustainable, while retaining creativity and beauty.

With over 25 years experience running mosaic workshops, we believe mosaic art can be accessible to anyone, whether you see yourself as a creative person or not. Maybe this is why you often find works of mosaic in outsider or naive art, such as the French artist Raymond Isidore and his "La Maison Picassiette". It is often thought that his mosaics were the first to be coined with the term Picassiette. In the 1930s Isidore began obsessively covering his entire property with decorative mosaics of salvaged crockery. Translated from French, the term picassiette means “stolen plate” or “broken plate” but also a “scrounger” or “sponger". So when Isidore was given the nickname “Picassiette” it suggests that his neighbours were not originally enthusiastic about his artworks, however these days La Maison Picassiette gets over 30, 000 visitors a year, all keen to catch a glimpse of his original creations!

In our Picassiette class you will be given different templates to choose from including a cat, bee, beetle or flower. Our experienced and friendly Art4Space tutor will guide you every step of the way, whether you are a beginner or have mosaic experience, so that everyone will leave with a unique Picassiette mosaic to treasure. This is a great hands-on experience with all the materials provided. You are of course welcome to bring your own broken crockery pieces to use in your artwork, but we also have boxes full of broken plates, cups and vases for you to rummage in.

Proceeds go towards our community art projects, providing mental well-being and creative health, especially for those facing barriers.

Picassiette Mosaic

Charlene Skyers

Brilliant workshop! An amazing way to switch off from the noise of life and tune into ‘real me time’ not digital passive screen watching! Felt great to put my hands to real use and create something I felt very proud to take home. Relaxing way to spend a sunny Saturday afternoon with supportive tutors ‘Julie and Gemma’ who I learnt a lot from about the art form of Picassiette. I’m looking forward to booking onto another Art4Space workshop. I will defo be recommending to my friends about the local ‘gem’ of an art studio I’ve come across in Stockwell! The studio is full of amazing resources and art inspiration. They even have a beautiful garden to relax in at anytime you fancy a break. I highly recommend this workshop to anyone who loves switching off from it all and who loves free snacks and a refreshing supply of alcohol and non alcohol drinks.

Abigail  Frimpong 

My niece and I really enjoyed the class and the teacher was great. She was supportive and patient. Thank you 😊

Make and Mend - Textile Workshop

Asun

Lovely class with Natti. We learnt a new and quick way of making patchwork. I also learnt to put a zip by machine and how to use a special Zip foot on the sewing machine . A very pleasant way of spending an evening.  The purse I made is beautiful. I will definitely recommend the course 

Joanna Niedzielska

I really enjoyed this session.
It was great! My instructor was very helpful and showed us all step by step how to make the purse.
I liked that I could learn the quilting technique during these session and I would like to use it in my future sewing projects.

Archana Hogarth

I had a wonderful evening at the new Art4Space Textile/ Make and Mend Studio . Our lovely Tutor, Natti showed us how to make a beautiful patchwork lined purse with a zip, which I absolutely love! We could choose our fabric combination from a selection of beautiful fabric cotton squares, and the Studio Is very well resourced so we had a sewing machine each.  The sewing machines had been serviced and were working beautifully. At the end, we sewed some beads as a decoration to our purse, from the amazing collection of textile resources in the studio. It was a very relaxing and creative experience because the studio is set in a lovely garden and Natti even gave us a glass of wine and chocolate cake! I would highly recommend

Abigail Frimpong 

I got to learn a new skill that I can use to mend my children's clothes. 

Kelli Powling 

The environment is welcoming and inspiring, the refreshments are generous and varied, and the class is just the right balance of guidance and independence (as with the Mosaic class I took this spring). 

Morgane encouraged us to take risks, advised using her textile expertise, assisted us as needed, and created a relaxed, friendly social atmosphere.

Art4Space is nourishing.

Beverly  Folan 

Really enjoyed the make and mend class. I took along a load of clothes that needed repairing. The lovely tutor gave me lots of ideas and guidance on the best way to repair my clothes. I haven't hand sewn or used a machine for yrs and the tutor helped me to repair everything I had brought in and I now feel confident to hand sewn and use a machine. The textiles studio is lovely and chilled, and there were drinks, snacks and cakes provided. It was a lovely evening and I would definitely recommend this class to anyone interested in textiles etc. The tutor is very knowledgeable and patient around a variety of techniques.

Marcina  arnold

This place is a haven, it has really enabled me to grow artistically and see how my music career and visual arts can inform one another and evolve! So pleased I have been able to take courses here and the bonus of it being child friendly perfect for a creative parent, a must the modern times we live in!

Daphne De Souza

Great teacher, environment and materials. Thank you

Samarys Ramdhun

Yesterday share a wonderful and incredible experience with helping  and taught me to learn more about the different materials and advise I used, recycling materials, to decoration and create a design own and decorative ,I learned more on this day and enjoyed the course conducted by the tutor Natti very beautiful person, thanks very much for understanding and patience I am grateful for the opportunity and experience very great I had at Studio Art4. 

Nigel Chapelle

It was my first time in the Make & Mend Studio.  It was an amulet workshop, and provided an opportunity to develop a very personal piece of textile.  The session was both brilliantly facilitated and  resourced.

I came along  because wanted to  improve my sewing skills and deepen my understanding of working with textiles.  Both objectives achieved, and a nice amulet to take home

Sophie Douglas

Relaxing doodle stitching evening with a glass of wine. Ellie, the tutor, showed us how to stitch a variety of stitches and came round all of us for a personal explanation and check to see how we were getting on. We sat in a happy room full of textiles and threads, buttons and needles. An absolute delight!

Misty Highmoor

I loved this class. A great room. People in the group were all made to feel welcome and Ellie supported me with learning different stitches. I fully recommend this class - This one was free but I would pay for it in future. Well worth it. 

This workshop was well structured, relaxed, and informative.  Several different stitching techniques what demonstrated with plenty of time for practice and time for creative expression.  The studio was warm relaxed and very well resource..

A lovely evening making a purse out of a tie. I was curious to explore first hand what I could make of it and it was surprisingly easy and fun. Fran is an awesome tutor, patient and gentle with a great sense of humour.  The glass of wine was a lovely addition. 

Laura Graham

Excellent workshop making flowers from scrap fabrics.  A seemingly complex process was simply explained and with very little sewing I made two beautiful flowers that I will wear in the future. A very enjoyable and satisfying experience.

My daughter and I booked to do the Japanese Kanzashi fabric flower Workshop and it was amazing.  It was a wonderful mother and daughter half term activity for me! The choice of materials is incredible.  There were lots of colourful fabrics to choose from and also amazing buttons and beads to embellish our fabric flowers with.  The Tutor Ellie and her assistant were very supportive and patiently showed us how to make the fabric flowers.   They were attentive to each person if we got stuck .  We were also given a glass of wine and other drinks.  They had relaxing music on and so it was a very calm and relaxing experience. The flowers look so complex when they are finished, but I was surprised how easy they were to make. I would thoroughly recommend this textile workshop! 

This workshop was brilliantly resourced with a fantastic. range of varied materials.  The teaching and facilitation were also of very high-quality..  the session was well timed with most of us being able to completely finish a small tapestry.  The quality of the work produced was very high..

This was my first ever experience of weaving and I learnt the basic skill set.  I’d recommend it to anybody interested in learning about tapestry.

Rosa  Rosario 

I’m very happy to be involved in this project 

Our focus will be textiles and sustainable practices, repair, and revive.
