Cinco de Mayo- Adult/Child/Teen Mosaic Tiles

2:00 PM - 3:00 PM
Sparta Public Library
Youth Services Room
Join us in a celebration of Cinco de Mayo creating DIY mosaic tiles. 

In the United States, Cinco de Mayo has evolved into a commemoration of Mexican culture and heritage.  One of the most famous forms of mosaic art in Mexico is Talavera tiles, which originated in the city of Puebla. These handcrafted tiles, adorned with intricate patterns and vivid colors, soon became an essential element in Mexican architecture, especially in churches, haciendas, and public buildings. 

Sign up in adult/child, adult/teen, teen/teen  pairs to create some of your own original mosaic coasters. Only one pair per registration.  This program is intended for children age 6 and over. 

The project will need to be left at the library overnight to dry.  You may pick it up anytime the following week.
