Youths welcome
War continues in Ukraine. It's winter and many Ukrainians are living without electricity, heat, water, and experiencing food shortages. We feel so helpless, but one small way to help support the Ukrainian people, especially the traumatized children, is to come and make a mosaic brick. Alameda Art Lab will contribute $50 of each fee and split the total raised to UNICEF's Ukraine Fund and to World Central Kitchen (Click on the names to read about their missions in Ukraine).
Last spring, we did this fundraiser and donated $1,046 to UNICEF (copy of receipt in the photos to left). This time, we're scheduling 4 sessions, so hope to raise double the amount.
Make a mosaic in the colors of the Ukrainian flag, of sunflowers (a major Ukrainian export) or whatever design you'd like. A popular design is to mosaic your house number. Perfect placed on your porch, in front of a planter or in your front yard. Choose from large selection of colorful art glass, nuggets, mirrors, and ball chains. You will learn how to use glass cutting tools and grinders to shape art glass and create a delightful and practical mosaic accent for your home. We'll grout it for you and you pick up in about a week.
