I find great joy in working with others on a mosaic project. It’s like an old fashioned quilting bee. Once the team has basic skills they quickly become engrossed in the work. Each participant brings their own creative spirit and way of doing things. The choices people make are often different from mine and much more interesting! The mural “Lake Michigan” was project that I led and was created by members and staff of Grand Avenue Club of Milwaukee and community volunteers. (Grand Avenue Club is a community which provides an array of opportunities for people who have experienced mental illness.) If you have an interest in a community project, team building event or school mosaic please contact me and we can talk about possible projects.

I love sharing my passion for mosaics with others. I have taught teenagers and adults from my home studio, the retirement community of St. John’s on the Lake, the Sharon Lynne Wilson Center for the Arts in Brookfield, WI, and various synagogues and community centers.
