How It Works
Workshops can be custom-designed to fit your timeframe and goals. A typical workshop includes:
Design ideation: We begin with one or more brief collaborative sessions (in person or via Zoom) where the team explores symbols, colors, and themes that feel meaningful to your work. Creativity exercises and simple prompts can help team members get into a right-brain frame of mind.
Custom Design: Erin produces a draft mosaic design based on team input and offers two rounds of revisions as needed.
Mosaic Making Day: An in-person, hands-on session (2 hours to a full day) where everyone learns how to cut and set glass and has a fun group setting experience. All tools and materials provided.
Delivery: Erin grouts and seals, and delivers your mosaic, ready to hang on an interior wall or use as an interior tabletop.
Pricing
Every workshop is custom-scoped and price is determined based on materials, time, and travel. A typical workshop, including two design ideation sessions, custom mosaic design and revisions by the artistic director, all materials and tools, a 5-hour hands-on in person day, and finished delivery, ranges between $5,000 to $8,000 for a 3x3 glass mosaic for a team of eight or fewer.
Why Creativity is Vital in Organizational Culture
The problems worth solving don’t yield to spreadsheets and strategy decks alone. More than just rational optimization, they demand imagination, trust, and creative ways to tap into collective action. Most busy teams rarely get to practice those ways of thinking and being together. Our creative muscles—the ones that generate unexpected connections, make space for ambiguity, and open our perception to possibility—tend to be under-valued and under-used. Mosaic-making is a powerful way to exercise these muscles. There’s something about fitting small pieces of glass, ceramic, stone, or beads – each with its unique edge and angle to refract the light — that brings collective wisdom into tangible practice. Irregular edges become glittering perfection as light scatters across the whole. Even the spaces between pieces play a valuable role—guiding the eye and helping it balance between movement and rest. That’s not just a metaphor for organizational life. It’s practice for it.
