She has attended artist residencies at the Vermont Studio Center, the Hambidge Center for the Arts, and Central Trak. In 2011, she earned a scholarship from the Chinese government to develop her artwork at the China Academy of Art in Hangzhou. Maggie has exhibited and lectured at Indiana-Purdue University and the SCAD Museum of Art in Savannah. She teaches part-time at the Savannah College of Art and Design. She’s also a jazz singer and bassist, who recently released an album with her husband and jazz guitarist, Jackson Evans.
