Countdown to Austin!

Mosaic artists and entrepreneurs everywhere are making plans now to head to Austin next February for the five-day conference of the Society of American Mosaic Artists and SAMA’s highly-anticipated annual juried exhibition. Together these two events bring together hundreds of the world’s top mosaic artists, art educators, gallery owners, glass collectors and aficionados, and mosaics-related business owners for a whirlwind of creative activity that makes the Summit and MAI exhibition the two most exciting events on the year’s mosaic calendar.
