    Comment on Facebook

    Located in the Tennessee Arts Commission offices, the Commission's Gallery is dedicated to exhibiting and promoting the talents of artists working in visual art, craft, media, and design disciplines from across the State of Tennessee. Exhibits featured in the lobby gallery are chosen through a bi-annual statewide competition open to all of Tennessee's professional artists. When the Tennessee Arts Commission was created in 1967, it was given a special mandate by the General Assembly to stimulate and encourage the presentation of performing, visual and literary arts throughout the state and to encourage public interest in the cultural heritage of Tennessee. Through a variety of programs, the Commission has encouraged excellence in artistic expression through the state's artists and arts organizations. That commitment has continued to expand through the years to ensure that the citizens of Tennessee have access to, and the opportunity to participate in the arts. Monday-Friday 8:00am-4:30pm
