No artistic experience required. Nothing to prepare or bring. Whether you're looking for a unique date night in Manchester, a birthday workshop, a hen do activity, or a team building event, this workshop is designed to be welcoming, inspiring, and genuinely memorable for everyone.
What Is a Mosaic Lamp Workshop?
A mosaic lamp workshop is a fully guided craft session where you build your own authentic Turkish mosaic lamp from scratch. Rooted in centuries of Ottoman artisan tradition, these lamps are made by hand-placing hundreds of vibrant, jewel-toned glass tiles onto a metal or glass base producing extraordinary pools of coloured light when switched on.
Our Manchester mosaic lamp workshop brings this timeless tradition into a warm and relaxed studio setting. You'll choose your lamp shape, select your own colour palette, and receive step-by-step expert guidance throughout regardless of your creative background.
"I came expecting to struggle and left with the most beautiful thing I've ever made. The whole session felt so calm and creative exactly what Manchester needed more of. My lamp has had more compliments than anything else in my flat."
