It's much more fun than assemble-it-yourself furniture and infinitely less frustrating than puzzles. The newly opened
Lucky Penny Mosaics studio offers classes in mosaic art at 3205 Broad St. in downtown Dexter.
Owner Lisa Wandres also co-owns the
Artistica Gallery, which carries the creations of about 30 local artists, as well as completed mosaic works.
"It's a little concentrated village here," Wandres says of both of her Dexter locations.
Students at all levels are welcome for multi-week classes. "It's kind of a get-together and we are having a lot of fun just meeting together and doing mosaics as a group," Wandres says.
"It's like a little therapy, and it's way cheaper than therapy," she adds.
Examples of mosaic artwork will be on view at Artistica's monthly Fourth Friday event this Friday, April 27 from 5 to 8 p.m.
