The Loyola Art Show is a juried fine art event held each August in the heart of downtown Mobile. Now in its second year, the show features over 60 professional artists from across the Southeast, including this year’s featured artist, AK Hardeman. The show invites attendees to explore a wide range of original artwork, from expressive abstracts and coastal-inspired pieces to sculpture, mixed media and more.
