Painter and writer William Dunlap presents The Saga of Red Eye the Rooster, an exhibition and book featuring the work of O.W. “Pappy” Kitchens, on display at The MAX
September 29, 2020 – March 7, 2021.
Mississippi’s own self-taught folk artist, Kitchens began painting at age 68, inspired by the oral tradition of parable and storytelling he grew-up with. The exhibit follows Red Eye’s life from foundling to funeral as he battles lust, wrath, pride, greed, and many of the other deadly sins. Free with museum admission.
Earlier this month, Tammy Wynette was inducted into the The MAX - Mississippi Arts + Entertainment Experience Class of 2020 Hall of Fame. It was a magical evening that saw Georgette Jones perform "Stand By Your Man" as part of a tribute honoring her mother, Tammy Wynette.
