Our board of trustees is pleased to announce that Dr Silvie Jacobi has been appointed as the next Director of the London School of Mosaic. Anyone passing through LSoM will recognise the massive contribution Silvie makes to the school.

As Director, Silvie will provide leadership and develop new initiatives to enable the school to prosper over the coming years, unlocking new potential in the Undercroft whilst furthering the core mission of LSoM.

Dr Silvie Jacobi has fifteen years of experience working in the industry, and was instrumental in creating the strong foundations of the London School of Mosaic with founder David Tootill. Silvie will build upon her track record by continuing to balance the values of our core community whilst developing modern systems and broadening our scope.

Prerana Phadnis, the Chair of Trustees, said, "I am delighted to announce the appointment of Dr Silvie Jacobi as the new Director of The London School of Mosaic (LSoM) on behalf of the Board of Trustees. Silvie starts in her new role in October 2021.

Please join me in extending a very warm welcome to Silvie in her new role and celebrating her 15 year commitment to developing Mosaic Art in the UK. In her current role as Head of Education at LSoM she has been instrumental in working closely with our current Director David Tootill in establishing the Diploma course in Mosaic studies which is in its third year. This is the first Mosaic Studies Diploma of its kind in the UK.

Silvie’s boundless energy, social responsibility and innovative ideas will no doubt take LSoM to new heights in the coming years.
