Mosaic is a 1961 jazz album released by Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers for Blue Note Records.

They recorded and performed together from 1961 into 1964. Hubbard, Walton, and Workman became permanent members of the group following the 1961 departures of trumpeter Lee Morgan, pianist Bobby Timmons, and bassist Jymie Merritt, though Merritt and others would appear infrequently on subsequent recordings.
