Today is World Tessellation Day, and we’re celebrating the art of patterns that fit together perfectly.

From geometric designs to flowing repeating shapes, tessellations are a fun way to explore symmetry, colour, and creativity all at once. You don’t need advanced skills to start, just a few tools and a bit of curiosity.

Stop in to grab supplies and try creating your own repeating pattern design.
