We’re so grateful for our Signature sponsors! Thanks for making the dream a reality. We believe it’s very important to celebrate the successes and joys of recovery through the arts.
We invite individuals and organizations to sponsor Signature 2024 to help cover the costs.

Signature is the first ever event that invites the community to celebrate with artists and musicians in recovery! It’s an annual extravaganza in Dallas, Texas that showcases the creative talents of people that use the arts to further their recovery from substance abuse and other behavioral health issues. We inspire the community to embrace the arts as effective tools for sustained recovery.
The Signature event was launched in the Spring of 2018 in Dallas, Texas with more than 450 artists and celebrants in attendance. And Signature 2019 saw more than 600 artists and celebrants. The word is getting out that celebrating the arts in recovery is very important.
If you’re an artist in recovery, we invite you to register to exhibit your work at the next Signature event by completing the Artist Entry Form.
Artists represent a unique population. Many artists struggle with drugs, alcohol and other problematic behaviors. Some factors that make it especially challenging for this population to recover include:
We all know of talented artists that have lost the substance abuse or mental health battle. And still there are so many artists that have recovered and courageously use their passions and talents to recover and help others.
We’ve created a performance and exhibit platform to celebrate and inspire the use of the arts in the recovery journey.
In 2017 Betty Ewing-Dicken, a tireless advocate for recovery, gathered a small group of passionate people in the Dallas recovery community to share her long-time vision for this event. Long story short, the Signature committee succeeded in putting together a huge party with over 450 artists, volunteers and celebrants at Signature on May 4th, 2018 in Dallas, Texas.
In 2018 Artists and Musicians in Recovery (AMR), a 501 (c) (3) private foundation, was established to present the annual Signature event, and other related artists recovery events throughout the year. At this time all events are held in the Dallas area.
A portion of the Signature proceeds will benefit a few designated recovery related organizations.
We envision a world that celebrates people in recovery and inspires those still suffering to recover and live creative, passionate and fulfilling lives.
Signature is an annual grand-scale art and music exhibition. We celebrate with the people who have utilized their passions and creative talents to further their recovery from substance abuse and other behavioral health issues. Using the arts, we inspire the community to embrace the arts as effective tools for sustained recovery.
Artists and Musicians in Recovery mourns the loss of our founding board member and musical director for “Signature”, Trey Johnson. To honor his memory and spirit, we have created a fund designed to show our appreciation for performing and participating artists and musicians. The funds will be used for those who volunteer their gifts and time to help support our community and cause.
As previously mentioned above, Signature is the first ever event that invites the community to celebrate with artists and musicians in recovery! We rely on support from donations to bring this amazing event to life for artists and musicians in our recovery communities.
