Irma Freeman Center For Imagination

Description

The Irma Freeman Center For Imagination is a community art center with a mission to enrich and diversify the local community by building positive experiences in a multicultural progressive setting.

The center is named in honor of Irma Freeman (1903-1994), a German-born Pittsburgh artist who inspired many young artists during her lifetime. She left a legacy of more than 500 paintings and other works of art.

Housed in a former storefront, local artist Sheila Ali created the beautiful mosaic on the facade using recycled material. Exhibits, workshops and other programs are held inside the developing facility which is incorporating found objects in its design and decor.
