Mosaics are the art of creating images with an assemblage of small pieces of colored glass, stone, or other materials. It may be a technique of decorative art, an aspect of interior decoration, or of cultural and spiritual significance as in a cathedral. Small pieces, normally roughly cubic, of stone or glass of different colors, known as tesserae, (diminutive tessellae), are used to create a pattern or picture. The mission for the Mosaic Society of Philadelphia is to enthusiastically promote awareness, appreciation and practice of mosaic art in the Philadelphia area through education and community outreach.
Members that will be showing are; Allison D. Lit, Jane Plenge, Sharon Ritz, Jessica Cherry, Judy Mc Conomy, Katia Mc Guirk, Carol Tinkleman, Barbara Frank, Carol Shelkin, Lynn Seng, Patty Smith, Laura Lyn Stern, Barbara C. Bix, Carol Stirton –Broad Stacey R. Heller and Carol Hemsley.

"The Mosaic Society of Philadelphia," is a group of dedicated and talented artists who want to share their art form with the world. So come, meet and greet and see what you can learn. The opening reception is Friday, June 8th at Tyme Gallery from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM. The reception is catered with hors d' oeuvres from Antonella's Italian Kitchen in Rosemont and is free to the public. The artwork is on sale and on exhibition from June 8th through July 10th.
