Made in Jackson is a tribute to the people — the many faces, voices, and lives that make this city what it is. Each portrait in this collection carries a story: of building, of surviving, of creating, of belonging. This exhibition isn’t about celebrity or status — it’s about presence. The teachers, artists, elders, organizers, dreamers, and day-to-day people who hold Jackson together.

This is about recognizing who’s really behind the city’s heartbeat. The ones who don’t just live here — they shape here.

This is Jackson. And these are the faces that made it.

Guests are invited to explore:

Activation Room – An interactive space where you can contribute to the Living Wall and reflect on what it means to be “MADE” in Mississippi.
Complimentary Wine
Audio & Sound Experience – A curated playlist and soundscape that flows through the space.
Live Performance – Special guest performance from Coke Bumaye inspired by the themes of the show.
Artist Talk – A moderated conversation by Krissi Be with Josh Martin exploring the inspiration, evolution, and stories behind the work.

Whether you come for the art, the stories, or the atmosphere, you’ll leave with a deeper connection to the people and places that define Jackson — and the reminder that we all leave our mark.
