The following five workshops, scheduled for 2025, focus on the techniques and materials used, including the use of the cutting tool and hammer.

Participants will create a personal project, which includes preparing the drawing, choosing the support and materials, cutting and gluing the tesserae, as well as finishing joints and details.
