Mosaic Lamp Creation: Traditional Turkish Craft Workshop

Discover the ancient art of Turkish mosaic lamp making in this hands-on team building workshop where participants create stunning illuminated artworks. In this 2.5-hour workshop, teams will learn the 500-year-old techniques of traditional Turkish mosaic lamp making. Participants select from geometric templates and are guided through assembling patterns, laying tiles (tesserae), and creating their own unique lamp. The session includes a Turkish tea service and treats while working. All materials are provided, and participants take home their nearly-finished lamp along with instructions for the final grouting step to complete at home. Teams will develop patience, attention to detail, and creative problem-solving skills while learning this historic craft. The workshop fosters collaboration as participants share techniques and admire each other's designs. Participants gain knowledge of geometric patterning principles that can be applied to other creative projects.
