Welcome to the home of the arts in Mountainair. Our rural area, in the heart of New Mexico, is rich with visual artists, musicians, writers, crafters. The Manzano Mountain Art Council works to support all the myriad artists in our area, and to bring other New Mexico artists and performers to Mountainair to further enliven our artistic life here.
Mosaic Mural Workshop Begins Wednesday, January 13th!
Interested in learning the basics of mosaic construction using broken tile and found objects?
Want to finally find a use for all those interesting small objects you have been collecting over the years?
Are you also willing to work with others here in Mountainair to put together a community mosaic mural to enhance the beauty of the area?
Well, then, here is a good opportunity!
Beginning next Wednesday, January 13th and continuing every Wednesday for 8 weeks, a group of us will be meeting at the house of Celeste Simon (between the elementary school and the bank) from 9 AM until 1 PM.
This workshop is free and materials are provided with the sole provision that participants partly assist with the community mural. The workshop is sponsored by the Manzano Mountain Art Council which has begun a community effort to enhance the esthetic environment of Mountainair. You can help in this effort and learn the basics of mosaics.
Please send an e-mail or call Tomas Wolff (715-4565; wolff dot clayworks at gmail dot com) if you are interested.
We need you!
