Mosaic Atlas is a resource for sharing photos of public mosaic
sites from around the world. Its purpose is to help people:
-
Learn more about mosaic art and the artists who create them
-
Discover sites to visit in our neighborhoods and on our journeys
-
Come together as community of admirers of mosaic art
Mosaic Atlas was founded in April 2005 by Bill Buckingham and Michael Welch
after attending the annual conference for the
Society of American Mosaic Artists (SAMA) in Washington, D.C. During
the conference, they attended a mosaic tour of the Washington area in which
they took hundreds of photos. Looking for a way to share these photos and
photos of other sites they have visited, Bill and Michael came up with the idea
of the Mosaic Atlas as a way for the mosaic community to share information
about public mosaic sites.
Mosaic Atlas is designed and maintained by Bill Buckingham, a web/software
developer and mosaic artist.
All sites listed on Mosaic Atlas include mosaics which are accessible to the
public. To become a contributor and add your own photos, click
