Annie Ruth Hughes

Annie is originally from Tuscaloosa, Alabama but got her artistic start while selling art on the streets of New Orleans, Louisiana and Athens, Georgia. She has written poetry and songs since the age of 7, often giving away much of her work. In addition to her artistic inclinations, Annie also volunteers with homeless advocacy groups, often giving the shoes off her feet. She is committed to awareness and justice for the mentally ill, LGBTQ+, and handi-capable communities.
