The Tennessee Art League was organized in 1954 as a nonprofit organization in the State of Tennessee. The primary mission of the TAL is to assist local visual artists by providing gallery space, workshops, and educational programs. In addition, the League endeavors to enrich the community by providing professional artist materials to schools, teaching art in community centers, senior centers and homeless shelters.

TAL hosts five art galleries; admission to each is always free and open to the public. October listings for each is as follows. Each show will hang from Saturday, October 2 - Saturday, Oct. 30.

Premiere Gallery – An exhibit of paintings by Refaat Zakhary. Mr. Zakhary studied in Egypt and spent many years as a partner in a New York architectural firm before relocating to Nashville. His works debuted September 4. (Artist's website: www.thezakharystudio.com)
