About

Honor Bowman Hall (b. 1984) is an artist and educator living and working in Savannah, GA.

Hall is from Roanoke, Virginia and holds a BA in Studio Art and English from the University of Mary Washington (class of 2006) and an MFA from the Savannah College of Art and Design (2014).

After moving to New York in 2007, where she worked in the music industry and at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Hall relocated to Savannah to study painting at SCAD. Following her graduate studies, she lived in Anchorage, Alaska from 2013-2017 and was the manager of the International Gallery of Contemporary Art (IGCA), the only not-for-profit exhibition space in Anchorage solely dedicated to contemporary art.

In addition to her work promoting and programming experimental art and facilitating exhibitions and events at IGCA, Hall also created two large murals in Alaska, including one at the Anchorage Museum, and taught Painting and Design courses at the University of Alaska Anchorage.

Now based in Savannah for a second time, Hall is the Dean of the School of Fine Arts, Dean of the School of Visual Communication, and Chair of Fine Arts at the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD).

 During her MFA candidacy, she was selected for a solo studio fellowship at the Elizabeth Foundation in New York, NY in conjunction with the SCAD Painting Department, and was selected to hold her thesis exhibition in conjunction with SCAD’s annual de:FINE Art event. Since her return to SCAD in 2017 as a member of the faculty, Hall continues to exhibit her work at SCAD. She has produced two murals for the university’s Savannah campus, and her artwork is featured on SCAD busses in Savannah and Atlanta. 

Hall has held artist-in-residence positions in Savannah, Georgia, Richmond, Virginia and New York, New York and has exhibited in solo and group exhibitions across the United States and abroad. Her paintings appear in several public and private collections. She is represented in New York by Contempop Gallery, in Atlanta by Kai Lin Art and online by SCAD Art Sales.

Hall is a member of the Friendship Magic Collective, an ongoing two-person art and music project for which she paints and plays cello. FMC’s most recent exhibition, Homecoming, was reviewed for Art Pulse Magazine #33.
