Diploma in Mosaic Studies
Celebrating the Diploma in Mosaic Studies
The Diploma in Mosaic Studies has been one of the proudest achievements of the London School of Mosaic: the only programme of its kind in the UK, and the highest level of mosaic training available. Over the years, it has equipped students with both the technical mastery and the critical understanding needed to excel in this unique art form.
Graduates leave with a rare combination of skills: traditional techniques such as hammer and hardie and work with specialist bases and substrates—essential for restoration and commissions—alongside design expertise in andamento, colour theory, and drawing. Their practice is grounded in a rich understanding of mosaic history, allowing them to place their work within a wider artistic and cultural context.
This high standard of teaching has been made possible thanks to an outstanding faculty: Giulia Vogrig, our Mosaic Practise Lecturer, Dr Will Wootton (King’s College London) and Dr George Bartlett (The Courtauld Institute), whose expertise in art history has further enriched the diploma experience.
Together, they have inspired our students to aim higher, think deeper, and create with purpose.
We celebrate all that this programme has achieved, with large public works of art a direct result of the Diploma course. We look forward with excitement to its future, as plans develop to secure a new home for this exceptional course at a prestigious London-based institution.
