• ALABAMA ARTISTS

  • ROOTS AND WINGS

    20th ANNUAL ART SHOW: April 1-19
  • About the show

    ArtsRevive is pleased to open registration for its 20th annual juried art competition. The show has grown significantly over the past several years in size, popularity and most importantly in the quality of the submissions. Alabama Artists: Roots and Wings is a reflection of that growth. Entry for 2022 is open to artists who are from Alabama although they may now live and work elsewhere (Wings) as well as those artists who currently live in Alabama (Roots).

    The ArtsRevive show has built a reputation for its varied sampling of Alabama talent at its finest. The show will be held at ArtsRevive Cultural Arts Center located at 3 Church Street in the heart of historic downtown Selma.

    Judge: Kay Sasser Jacoby

    Kay Sasser Jacoby, a native of Ozark, Alabama, graduated from the University of Alabama with majors in Art and Advertising. She has lived most of her adult life in Birmingham where she managed two art galleries, adult and children's boutiques, and created a cottage industry of hand painted plaques in 2001. Through all these years she’s woven creativity into her life and those around her. She and her husband, Ray, moved to Montgomery in 2006, where she continued her enthusiasm for the arts. Since then she has revamped and managed the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts Museum Store and served as the Community Arts Program Manager at the Alabama State Council on the Arts. She recently retired from the Arts Council to focus on her painting and enjoying art in everyday life.
