Huntsville, Ala – The Huntsville Museum of Art (HMA) was recently named a “Best of BAMA” Awards recipient in the Arts and Entertainment category by the readers of Alabama Magazine.
The “Best of BAMA” contest ran for 12 months and was promoted in the publication and on the magazine’s Facebook page. Alabama Magazine received more than 1,000 votes from readers who chose the people, places, and events they felt were the best of the best in Alabama.
“To receive the ‘Best of BAMA’ Award is an honor that is a result of the dedication and collaborative efforts of the staff, Board of Directors, Foundation Board and the many Museum volunteers with whom I’ve had the pleasure of working during my past three years at HMA,” Christopher J. Madkour, the Museum’s Executive Director, said. “I welcome you to visit HMA and find out for yourself why we were voted the ‘Best of BAMA!’”
