This exhibition grows from a body of work by Abe Partridge, recounting his time in the religious communities of rural Appalachia. It is the culmination of a 2.5 year process that models ways art and other forms of cultural production can expand meaning across religious, cultural and geographic divides. Originated in 2022 by Alabama Contemporary, With Sign Following is on at Kentuck at Queen City in March 2026.

In this brand new body of work, Tony Rodrigues tackles the growing housing crisis with paintings full of crushed marble that rupture and disrupt idealized subject-matter of a world in the wrong kind of excess. Through depicting a fictional “neighborhood”, Rodrigues explores not only what we desire from our lived spaces, but the dilapidation, entropy and rot that riddle a broken system.

On March 19, join us at the home of ceramicist Susie Bowman in Fairhope, Alabama, where we will break bread over what it takes to sustain a practice in the deep Deep South. Susie will give us a first hand look at her home studio and soda kiln.

While parents and caregivers enjoy a a slow-flow yoga session with Kindred Yoga, Alabama Contemporary will facilitate mindful art activities in partnership with local children's book author and illustrator Eleanor Brindle.

For this networking series, we'll be back AC Satellite to show off Homestead Extinction, a pop-up artist takeover by Tony Rodrigues, talk about teaching opportunities, our upcoming education pavilion, and all the exciting possibilities in this new experimental studio space.
