Stacey Edwards | Alabama Saints
Stacey Edwards is a painter, mixed media artist, and art educator who has worked in South Alabama for more than 15 years. She spent 13 years as the art teacher at Greenville High School, where she built a rigorous program that produced award-winning student artists recognized at the state and national levels. Her students include four Congressional Art Award winners, two first-place finalists in the Federal Junior Duck Stamp Competition, and multiple recipients of honors through the Alabama State Council on the Arts Visual Achievement Program. Many went on to pursue college degrees with visual arts scholarships, supported in part by an AP Drawing program that prepared portfolios for college credit.Since leaving the classroom, Edwards has continued teaching through the Alabama State Council on the Arts Collaborative Artist Program, working with students at Greenville Elementary, McKenzie School, and Pleasant Home School. Her work reflects a long-standing commitment to arts education in rural and central Alabama and to integrating the arts as a core part of student learning.Stacey Edwards’ work will be featured at Gallery 905 through February.
