Morris Mitchell Art and Education Fund

We are honored to announce the establishment of the "Morris Mitchell Art and Education Fund" at the Bessie Smith Cultural Center, in memory of the late Morris Mitchell, a beloved artist and educator. Morris was a true seeker—dedicated to exploring truth through art, emotionally, intellectually, and spiritually. His work, deeply inspired by dramatic contrasts and a masterful use of color and figure-ground relationships, aimed to provoke questions rather than provide easy answers. Morris's influence as a painter, educator, and creative force continues to resonate. In lieu of flowers, his family requests that donations be made to this fund, supporting future art and educational initiatives in his honor. Morris was also the devoted husband of our curator, Marty Mitchell, and his legacy will inspire generations to come.
