Mosaic Tile House Venice, CA — Attraction in Los Angeles

Aprile Haynes, you took the words right our of my mouth. :)

This place is so cool. There is not much else I can add to the other great reviews: you really do leave feeling peaceful and inspired, not only in their art but their love for each other.

Let me try to add some other details...

You have to e-mail them for reservations to tour the house. Cheri answered my e-mail within minutes of me reaching out to her and was very sweet.

There is a gift shop and I am kicking myself for not buying more of their work.

Their house is very close to Venice Beach, so you can really fill your day between breakfast, The Mosaic Tile House, Venice Beach, and dinner.

Great place to go on a date. If your date doesn't like this place, get rid of them.

They accept broken ceramics. When we went, there was a bag waiting for them at the gate.

Take your camera and don't be afraid to take pictures sitting down, laying down, looking up, looking down, and of whatever speaks to you.

Don't miss the details, like their kitchen table, the faces in the walls, little cartoon characters placed throughout, and especially the giraffaroo.

It's a really...

THE MOSAIC TILE HOUSE, Venice, California: The Mosaic Tile House in the heart of Venice is a dazzling, immersive experience that I’m happy I finally got around to seeing along with my brother who was visiting from Chicago. Two artists who found one another in this lifetime have expressed and transmuted their art and love in this eye candy display of brilliant color mosaics of glass along with found, donated, and scavenged art, and even transformed bathtubs. When the gates open (Saturdays only) the wonderland opens to the whimsical art of this husband and wife duo (Cheri Pann, Gonzalo Duran) who have been adding to this unique environment, ongoing for over 30 years. Vibrant colors engulf you in a feeling of “awe and wow,” much like the Antoni Gaudi use of mosaics in his art and architecture in Barcelona. The artists are on premise—it’s their home, after all, and it all provides a very warm, inviting, spirit-lifting, and welcoming experience to the outdoor premises and their inside kitchen-gift shop. There is a $20 entrance fee if reservations are made in advance. Worth it!...
