The Institute of Mosaic Art is a premier mosaic school in the United States, offering students technically solid instruction in the mosaic arts in a fun and welcoming environment. Institute of Mosaic Art is located in a colorful building in Oakland, California's Jingletown Arts District. IMA houses classrooms and lecture spaces with lots of room to create. There is a resource library in development and an outdoor courtyard area where we plan to create a mosaic sculpture garden.
