Mosaic Arts

If you have visited St. John's Institute in Edmonton lately, you will have noticed that besides the interior renovations ( which are just wonderful) , they have also addressed the exterior remodeling too.  In fact, they have added an artistic element to the exterior wall at the entranceway - a beautiful mosaic specially created by the lovely Theodora Harasymiw who is offering this workshop!
What a wonderful opportunity!!  See you there!!
