Great class

This was a great experience. We learned a lot about making mosaics of all kinds but the history as well. Dimitra explained everything. All the materials were provided and she led us through the process. Understanding the making of mosaics gave us much more appreciation for those we saw at the mosaic museum in Sparti. This is a great class for all ages.

Dimitra is an absolute gem, as is her shop & studio. Right on the main street in Sparta and steps away from the statue of Leonidas, you'll find Dimitra's Mosaic Art workshop nestled away - a beautiful garden decorated with her own work for sale and viewing. My session was only meant to be 3 hours, but I'm a bit of a perfectionist and it was taking me longer - I ended up being there for 5 hours and Dimitra was incredibly patient and kind about it. She told me to take my time and that everyone has their own pace. We chatted away the entire time and it honestly flew by (despite how long I took!). It was really a wonderful experience and I'd do it again in a heartbeat. If you're in the Sparta area, definitely check this out! Thank you, Dimitra!

A great experience off the beaten path if you’re ever travelling through Sparta - we are very proud of our mosaics we made with Dimitra who was a very lovely and generous host. We couldn’t believe 4 whole hours had gone by having been so focused on the task at hand and fully engaged in interesting and thought-provoking authentic conversation. Highly recommend!!!

I was recently in Sparta Greece and took the class with Dimitra. It was an amazing way to spend the morning. Dimitra was great, spoke perfect English and I learned so much! Of course I had to bring back some of her stunning pieces home as well::)) I highly recommend as a perfect greek experience and to learn something new. Thank you Dimitra and I can't wait to see you next year !!!
Creative and delicious

Dimitra was wonderfully friendly and welcoming. The workshop was relaxing and we all found our inner creativity including our two teenage boys. The refreshments were delicious, thank you for your kindness Dimitra.

We had initially booked just for myself for the workshop but once the rest of my family saw Dimitra’s workspace and glorious art we were all in. We learnt so much and had such a wonderful time. Dimitra is incredibly friendly and passionate. You cannot help but feeling immediately comfortable in her space and feeling at ease with attempting something new with her support. If you are in the Peloponnese (which you should be because it is an amazing place to visit) don’t hesitate to book in for an experience you won’t forget. I am heading home with such inspiration!
Very enjoyable 4 hours

I was the only person booked on the course, as Dimitra was conducting it in English, so I had one to one tuition! Dimitra was a lovely person and it was great to get to know her as we proceeded. The workshop took place in the garden of her studio which was very comfortable. I really enjoyed making the mosaic. Dimitra was very helpful and informative, but encouraged me to make my own decisions regarding colours etc. The whole experience was very relaxing and enjoyable. I was so pleased that I had a finished piece to take home and am now feeling inspired to take up the craft at home. Thank you Dimitra.
Excellent Experience

The decorations with pebble and mosaics are incredible beauty and special grace. Mrs. Dimitra has incredible patience with the children, they themselves have incredible fun with their crafts and do not want to stop until they are done.
