  • Public support for the arts used to mean bringing outside artists to underserved populations.
  • “Now, it also includes lifting up those arts that are from Alabama,” said folklorist Joey Brackner.
  • NEA chair joins discussions about resources available to fund, support artists in rural Alabama.

It reminds them of the time when their Black ancestors quilted for warmth on plantations or when they found economic empowerment in selling their art during the Civil Rights Movement.
