Great job !
There are a lot of Buildings here in Mobile Alabama that needs be spruced up . Older Buildings that needs to be put back in to use . Homeless work training shelters would catch 2 fish with a single hook . That in itself is a multiple bonus for everyone that lives in the Mobile County area . Even the least able people can become a benefit to themselves again , and to our entire family community as a whole .
City revenues would be increased dramatically in short order , and in the long term we all would gain a much preferred good name .
Please consider this , every time you get together ? A strong foundation starts with compassion , and builds by faithfulness .

I am in Destin, FL. can you give me directions to the Gallery? My name is Paul Blanchard. Can you ask Paul Gray if we Know each other? Thanks Paul Blanchard at sfandpfb@cox.net.
She currently is not on our schedule again. However, if you would like to touch base with her for updates on her and her work, we will gladly put you in touch with her! Email director@mobilearts.org and we will give her your information.
Alright! Full disclosure! I’m admittedly somewhat biased as Eric and I have been friends since high school! He had many more friends than I because he spent so many years there! On top of being a dear friend and a kind soul, he is obviously a multi talent! He has certainly helped make any project I have included him in a huge success! He is well-deserving of this award!
I’ve known Eric since High School. Not only does he play a assortment of musical instruments, he is a singer, and a Comedian! He’s played with the Plum Loco Band and many others around the Gulf Coast.
The Mobile Arts Council made a Excellent Choice!
I am proud to have the opportunity to play drums in “Tony B and the Opperators” with Eric. He is a very talented musician and a great guy.
I have several of his CD’s done by Eric and his wife Karin. What a great talented couple. Keep up the good work Eric.
We let me glom on while you’re hot in the news. I listened to Eric at a restaurant years ago playing solo with guitar. I was knocked out at this
highly refined talent. That’s all folks…Ben Mathis, cousin of Ken Matthews.
I’m a local artist. I would love two or three (or as many that you will allow) thin slices to paint on. A series. I would love to paint on a piece of history from our beautiful city. Please consider me. Thank you. I love Mobile
Bob,
It was great talking to you, thank you for letting us know of Nancy’s exhibit!! I can’t wait to see the quilts in person, the photographs are amazing.
My name is Selena Garza. I recently moved into a home in Mobile that had been occupied by the same family since it was built in the 70s. They left a piano in the house and inside of the piano chair I found an old recital program from May 2, 1953 at Bernheim Hall. If you guys are interested in preserving and archiving this piece of history I would be happy to pass it along. You can call or email me. Thank you.
If you can’t get the online registration to work, we can register you at the door tomorrow morning. Here is the link here: https://mobilearts.org/mobmusicsummit/
Doors open at 9:30 a.m. and presentations will start by 10:10 a.m.!
Fairhope’s Corey Swindle
is ready to use his talent to recognize Mobile’s best athletes.
By Joey Warner
MOBILE BASEBALL
CONNECTION
A life size statue of Hank Aaron is on display at the Mobile Arts Council Gallery next door to the Saenger Theatre in downtown Mobile.
“Being the hometown guy, and having been involved in baseball my entire life, this project is especially near to my heart,”
Corey Swindle wrote in a message.
Corey Swindle of Fairhope, Alabama along with four more finalists have submitted their work and it is on display at the Arts Council Gallery.
One of the talented experts will be chosen as the artist to achieve and fulfill this amazing project.
Six nine-foot-tall bronze statues with pedestals, portraying Mobile’s five Hall of Fame baseball players and one Hall of Fame football player will be erected in the Hall of Fame Courtyard in Cooper Riverside Park next to the Convention Center at the foot of Government Street in
downtown Mobile.
Former Major League baseball players Hank Aaron; Leroy “Satchel” Paige, Willie McCovey, Ozzie Smith, Billy Williams and former Houston Oiler and National Football League player Robert Brazile are the first players to be recognized with more members of the Mobile Sports Hall of Fame to follow.
Swindle’s son, Brody, is a rising star on the baseball field for Coach Matt Limbaugh at Bayside Academy High School in Daphne, AL.
It is evident Corey has his heart and soul in to this opportunity.
As baseball and sports enthusiasts from Mobile and Baldwin Counties as well as the surrounding area, we should rally around and support Corey Swindle with hope he will be the lucky one chosen as the creator of these unique sculptures.
“My team feels we have a great shot at this project and would be honored to be apart of this awesome project,” Swindle wrote.
Check out Corey’s work in the images of Hank Aaron.
I am looking to host a medical school graduation party for approximately 100 people and was wondering if you might have any spaces that could accommodate us. If so, please let me know what you can offer us and the various price points.
Yes, there are a few pieces in the collection that are part of a silent auction, and those will be available for bidding until March 31st. Other pieces are for sale, but not a part of the silent auction. Please stop by the gallery (6 S Joachim St., Room 1927) or email info@mobilearts.org if you would like to move forward with any purchases or bids!

Hello Courtney! You should have received an automated email confirmation. I’m guessing it went to your junk/spam folder. We will be reaching out to you shortly! 🙂
It seems that this show is getting earlier and earlier. I wish I had more time, but I’m going to try to have something by next Monday (June 20). I have been in the show before, but I’m not currently a member, so that will be taken care of when I enter.
The non-miniature items (paintings, prints, etc.) are all set to “buy it now” and are only available to see in the gallery. If you are curious about them, we could send you some images! Just email director@mobilearts.org.
I was so fortunate to get invited to a luncheon at Roxanne’s house where I first saw her miniatures. I have always told people ever since, her display cases were like a “mini museum” . . . . . I wish I had the funding to put all of her miniatures into a single “Roxanne Dyess Miniatures Museum” . . . . she was one talented lady.
What an amazing exhibit. Exceptional body of work, Louis Tooker captures the essence of the figure in an old world style reminiscent of Inges.
So inspired to work with the figure again. As I embark on my own studies of figurative drawing, I appreciate the effort it took to complete these drawings.
The paintings in this show are an expression of the vitality and diversity of the Art scene in the Mobile area. Jessica Maple did an exemplary job curating this exhibit.
Hey Charles! You could enter work into both shows or just one. We can write out something beside your work to acknowledge that you are a participant in both shows as well!
Thanks so much for your support of our guild. Mobile has an exciting and active arts community. The Azalea City Art Quilters will have a display at the show. We had such a good show at your place.
Hi There
We are a local HS doing Mean Girls in the fall, October.
Wondering if you will have any of your costumes for rent once you are done with your show?
On behalf of our recording artist, I am inquiring about your “Open Mic” event featured every third Friday of each month; with immediate interest in your upcoming event on August 18, 2023.
Our recording artist appreciates this opportunity. Please, let me know how to best proceed in this endeavor. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.
Congratulations Zac, so very proud of you and all you’ve accomplished. Best of everything in your future, we know with your hard work you can do anything you set your mind to. Tom & Karen Morris
I enjoyed taking water color and pencil drawing from Jerry years ago. After taking pencil drawing for the third time he said, “Okay you’re drawing me good enough to know it’s me! Let’s try something new.” Then he brought out a mirror and made me draw myself!
At 3rd Floor Art Camp, we spend the week working on all kinds of art projects. You’ll work with watercolor, acrylic paint, polymer clay, fabric, gelli printing, paper crafts, string art, and lots more!
Camp is 9 to 3 every day. Kids bring their own lunch and are provided two snacks and drinks.
June 3 – 7: ages 7 – 9
June 10 – 14: ages 10 – 12
June 17 – 21: ages 13 – 15
June 24 – 28: family camp! This is for kids who want to go to camp with their siblings, all ages welcome

I am thrilled the Mobile Arts Council is doing this. I have been an art teacher for 40 years and understand the power of art.
I have written 10 books on this subject…several in a lesson plan format, so facilitators can teach these art classes easily.
I am looking forward to work with you.

My name is Jade Maghoney, and I am the Senior Logistics Director for Stage One Dance Productions. We are looking for different venue options in the Mobile area to host our dance competition. We are looking at Jan. 10-12, 2025 and Jan. 16-18, 2026. I know school activities are a priority and it may be too late or too early to determine. If you have any information at this time, that would be great. Look forward to hearing from you soon!
Hello Jade! Thank you for reaching out. While we don’t have any control over booking events, we would recommend reaching out to the Mobile Convention Center. The Arthur R. Outlaw Mobile Convention Center anchors lively downtown Mobile, Alabama, within walking distance of retail shops, restaurants, museums, parks and art galleries. The 317,000-square-foot facility features 16 meeting rooms, two ballrooms and two exhibit halls that total 100,000 square feet. They would be best equipped with the facilities necessary for your dancers and currently host several dance competitions throughout the year.
Eugene Walter, Eugene, is present in my mind through the wonderful memories I have of him in Rome, and the grand time I had visiting him in Mobile in November 1987.
Many of his books grace my library, some adorned with a witty annotation signed by him.
I haven’t forgotten the lyrics he wrote to one of my compositions, Secret Colors . The song was performed at the Eugene Walter celebration concert in 1987.
I am heartfelt that Eugene is still remembered, he would have lived that!

Outlaw Mobile Convention Center anchors lively downtown Mobile, Alabama, within walking distance of retail shops, restaurants, museums, parks and art galleries. The 317,000-square-foot facility features 16 meeting rooms, two ballrooms and two exhibit halls that total 100,000 square feet. They would be best equipped with the facilities necessary for your dancers and currently host several dance competitions throughout the year.
Such a great inspiration for many years in downtown Mobile.
Eugene Walter, Eugene, is present in my mind through the wonderful memories I have of him in Rome, and the grand time I had visiting him in Mobile in November 1987.
Many of his books grace my library, some adorned with a witty annotation signed by him.
I haven’t forgotten the lyrics he wrote to one of my compositions, Secret Colors . The song was performed at the Eugene Walter celebration concert in 1987.
I am heartfelt that Eugene is still remembered, he would have lived that!
