Hands-on Houston: Blue & White Mosaic Tiles

Houston Center for Contemporary Craft
Houston, Texas
April 4, 2026

This month’s Hands-on Houston celebrates Houston’s historic blue and white mosaic street signs! These tiled wayfinding markers have marked H-town streets for over a century, showcasing the influence craft has on our city. Create your own mosaic tile in a monogram style, then finish the tile at home with a grout kit (provided) to solidify the design. Once finished, display your new tile indoors or outdoors. Don’t forget to visit the galleries to view the historic tiles on view in Clutch City Craft!

Note: Please allow 25 minutes to complete this activity. The activity will take place outdoors, weather permitting, and is on a first-come, first-served basis, while supplies last.
