"Mama Don't 'Low" by Patty Simmons won The Marie White Masterpiece Award at Road to California 2026.
Artist Statement: "The Jug Band vibes in this quilt cross from real to homemade instruments. Feel the rhythm and change in pitch that comes from blowing across that jug, humming into the comb and paper, horns blaring a zydeco tune, a squeeze box and washboard tempo keeping it lively. Sit back, observe, join in and enjoy all that Mama Don't "Low."
