Mosaic Photo Frame Workshop, Singapore

The Verztec team and over 30 children from Life Community Services Society (LCSS) spent a fun-filled Saturday morning at LCSS’ new office through a creative mosaic photo frame workshop. The workshop serves to inculcate patience and creativity within the children by allowing them to creatively design and stick each tiny mosaic tile to the photo frame on their own. The children returned home happily with their self-crafted mosaic photo frame.
