, earned her MD from the Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons. Outside of the medical field, Dr. Susan Turner supports the Annette Howell Turner Center for the Arts in Valdosta, Georgia. Dr. Turner’s family helped establish the center to promote the arts and art education in southern Georgia.


One of the key programs of the Annette Howell Turner Center for the Arts is the Spring Into Art exhibition, a free public event that allows artists to display and sell their work. The 29th Annual Spring Into Art took place from April 11 through June 8, 2016. 

The 2016 event attracted more than 210 artists and 90 sponsors. Serving as judges, Augusta State University art professor Thomas M. Crowther and Athens Technical College art appreciation professor/Double Helix STEAM School artist in residence Hope Hilton analyzed and appraised work in a wide variety of media and fields. Artist Alfred Phillips ultimately won Spring Into Art’s 2016 Best in Show Award for his acrylic painting “Kenny’s Dock.”
