A new mosaic is in the works for Spring of 2025 called "Life is Magical" featuring a mother dragon on a ledge over the water at sunset, with her four baby dragons flying nearby, designed by me and a Natick middle school student. The mosaic will be 54" x 76" and will fit on the upper part of the blank brick panel above the fire bell.
Please contact me at [email protected] if you are interested in becoming a sponsor. Your name will be placed on a unique fused glass tile as a permanent part of this new mosaic. Sponsorships range from $100-$2500, and can be sent through VENMO: @Carol-Krentzman or by check made out to NCA (Natick Center Associates, a 501c3) with 'Mosaic' in the memo line, and mailed to 8 Court Street, Natick, MA 01760.
Thank you so much for supporting my mosaic dreams!
