Alice Hubbard Stallings

62nd Annual Juried Fine Arts Exhibition

Alice Hubbard Stallings

Alice Hubbard Stallings, originally from Norfolk, Virginia, made Washington, North Carolina her home with husband T. Franklin Stallings. A dedicated artist, she studied at East Carolina University and explored a wide range of media throughout her life.

Her work has been featured in numerous exhibitions, including a 2018 retrospective at Arts of the Pamlico celebrating her creative legacy. Beyond her art, Alice was a driving force in the local arts scene—she co-founded the Beaufort County Arts Council in 1972, which later became Arts of the Pamlico.

This exhibition proudly bears her name in tribute to her lifelong contributions to the arts and through the generous support of her family.
