This exhibition seeks to connect local emerging artists with community patrons as well as promote and support Mitchell’s Place. (Mitchell’s Place Junior Council (MPJC) is a group of young professionals in their 20′s and 30′s (21-35) whose goal is to increase the awareness of Autism Spectrum Disorder and provide support for Mitchell’s Place within the Birmingham, AL community.) Following in the tradition of the 1913 New York Armory Show, we seek to create a space where viewers are encouraged to engage both visually and socially with artists. Artists will be provided a 6′x6′ area to install as they see fit. In doing so we hope to encourage a creative dialogue between artist and patron, all of which can be washed down with Avondale Brewery’s delicious beers. Space is limited so don’t delay this opportunity to be a part of the Avondale / Birmingham art community.

April is Autism Awareness Month, so the Autism Society of Alabama Junior Board and the Mitchell’s Place Junior Council are throwing a Funky Fish Fry to help raise money and awareness!
Come out and enjoy a beautiful spring afternoon in Crestline Village. Listen to some funky music, hang out with friends, eat some good ole fried catfish, and have a cold one. Bring the kids down too for the moonwalks and face painting. It’s a family par-tay!
