Mosaic on a Stick: Where Art & Community Intersect

Mosaic on a Stick was brought to life in 2004 by Lori Greene. The original intention was to create an inclusive space for all people to create art and connect. Not only does Lori and her team continue to maintain this goal, but they have also expanded into being an art supply story, a classroom, an art gallery, and a studio all in the same building. Since the beginning of Mosaic on a Stick, the team has created various murals and other community projects around the Twin Cities. However, they believe art can transcend to anybody outside of the team. That means they teach classes for all experience levels as well as cultivate community by providing an open art space. This Black, Indigenous, woman-owned mosaic studio strives for social responsibility, investments in community, and fostering passion for the arts and mosaics. 

Lori and the team at Mosaic on a Stick understand the importance of a PROMISE Act Grant. As declared by Lori, “This grant would help me to continue to stay in business.” There have been fewer opportunities to apply for grants and decreased customer traffic to Mosaic on a Stick. Altogether, these breed challenging circumstances for Lori and the team in order to keep their business thriving. With the grant funds, Mosaic on a Stick stays in business and the funds can help with payroll, rent, utilities, and other ways to ensure the business continues as a staple in the community. 

Lori has so much love for her small business and is grateful to share it with everyone who reads this. To learn more about Mosaic on a Stick, visit their website: https://www.mosaiconastick.com/.
