2025 Members’ Show Awards
The Mobile Arts Council (MAC) is proud to announce the winners of the 2025 Members’ Show, during our Members Appreciation Night celebration on August 8th at the Gallery @ Room 1927. More than 1,000 visitors poured through the doors to experience an evening of art, music, and community.
This year’s exhibition was juried by esteemed artist and educator Mr. Kevin King, who selected the following award recipients:
- Best in Show: Christopher R. Murray for The Decadence of Empire
- 2nd Place: Jenyes for Golden Hour
- 3rd Place: Laura Ledbetter for Shipwreck
- Members’ Choice: Heather A. Mitchell for Plot Twist
- Dempsey & Litchfield Award: Janet Hinton for Deer Reiver at Theodore Port
- Honorable Mentions: Micah Mermilliod for Val and Evan, & Laurie Schaerer for Cedar Waxwing
The Members’ Show will remain on view through the end of the month at the Gallery @ Room 1927, offering the public an opportunity to experience these award-winning works in person.
The night’s success would not have been possible without the support of the community. MAC extends its gratitude to Greer’s St. Louis Market for providing delicious refreshments, and to the legendary Excelsior Band 1883, whose music and spirited second line down Joachim Street.
Once again, Mobile has proven its love for the arts — and MAC is grateful for every member, guest, vendor, and patron who makes celebrations like this possible.
