What It Is
Our Turkish mosaic lamp workshop in Midtown NYC runs at 325 W 38th Street, two blocks from Times Square–42nd St. In 2.5 hours you choose a lamp shape and an Ottoman geometric pattern, set hand-cut glass and beads piece by piece, and leave with a working lamp — bulb, cord and switch included. $99 per person, all materials included. KraftStories makes its own mosaic lamp kits, so you work with the same glass we supply to studios nationwide.
It is our most-reviewed class in New York, with 90 five-star reviews. Public classes seat 5–30; private lamp workshops host groups up to 200 at the studio or at your office.
