Description


 6th graders created three beautiful serving trays of Moorish inspired tiles for the auction.  After studying Moorish (Islamic Spanish) art from the 9th-15th centuries, and particularly the tile designs that emerged from this period and beyond, students designed and created their own highly patterned colorful tiles.  There are six tiles in each 13” x 19” wooden tray.
