Mosaic Art Take & Create Kits available at ALS Libraries May 7-31

MOUNTAIN IRON - The Arrowhead Library System (ALS) will be providing Mosaic Art Take & Create Kits for member public libraries to distribute May 7-31, 2024. This art experience, created by Chisholm artist Rebekkah Anderson through Diletto, combines the art of storytelling through both mosaics and barn quilts. “Mosaics are an art form we don’t typically access in our area as a community, but they are so much a part of our regional history of storytelling,” said Anderson.

Take & Create Art Kits will include supplies to create a unique mosaic tile coaster, including tiles, a bowl & spoon set, grout, coaster, and design examples. Kits will be distributed at the following public libraries and ALS outreach locations:
