 Jacqui Theobald

Jacqui Theobald highlights the push for sustainability, organic, and locally grown food while showing how communities come together around gardens. In her neighborhood, there are fifteen small plots for various gardeners from four different condos; that results in social gatherings, great conversation, and right now, more tomatoes than anyone needs. It is definitely a community builder, Jacqui’s installation shows off some great pictures from this new summer experience.

About Jacqui Theobald

As a lifelong painter with a fairly recent appreciation of digital photography, Theobald never runs out of inspiration, and Dayton is frequently her source.  In 2007, she won the grand prize for City Life, and that photo was included in the 2008 City Life brochure. The following year, she nabbed the August photograph winning title. She also garnered honors as part of the 2010 Urban Nights Photo Exhibit. Additionally, Theobald has hosted exhibits of her paintings at the Dayton Convention Center, Greenville Memorial Hall, Washington Township Recreation Center, offices of the Montgomery County Commissioners, Unitarian-Universalist Fellowship and St. Paul’s Episcopal Church. She also participates in group shows at Dayton Society of Painters and Sculptors, Dayton Visual Arts Center, Art About Town, and others. “As a practicing art therapist in private practice, I see and understand the importance of finding a place in our lives for solace and serenity as well as sociability and stimulation,” she says. “Downtown Dayton provides opportunities for both quiet contemplation and great people togetherness.”
