Unleash Your Creativity With Piece by Piece

In a world where art holds the potential to heal, connect, and empower, Piece by Piece is on a mission to transform lives through the simple yet profound act of creation. Our free mosaic art workshops offer more than just a space to create—they provide a lifeline to those who have experienced homelessness or economic insecurity, offering a supportive environment where individuals can reclaim their sense of purpose, build new skills, and forge meaningful connections.

Research shows that engaging in creative activities can significantly reduce stress, enhance mental health, and improve overall well-being. For individuals facing economic hardships or recovering from the trauma of homelessness, these benefits are more than just theoretical—they are a vital part of the journey toward healing and self-empowerment. At Piece by Piece, we believe in the power of art to bring about real, positive change.

Workshops are held every week in South LA, and are designed to provide a welcoming and healing environment. Classes are free to attend for Angelenos who have faced economic hardships, homelessness, trauma and loss as well as all veterans and their families. By participating in Piece by Piece workshops, qualified individuals will have the opportunity to:

  • Build confidence, enhance your well-being, and create a brighter future.

  • Reduce Stress through the calming effects of creative expression.

  • Strengthen your ability to navigate life’s challenges as you build your emotional resilience.

  • Engage your mind through intricate mosaic work.

  • Connect with a community of like-minded individuals who share your passion for creativity and change.

  • And for those who wish to pursue certification, earn Supplementary using your artistic skills to earn income.
