ANNOUNCING THE LAUNCH OF:
ART NASHVILLE
The latest annual destination for the international art world: Nashville, Tennessee.
Art Nashville 2018 will be the city’s first annual international art fair, drawing art lovers and buyers from around the globe, expanding Nashville from Music City to an Art City.
Art Nashville 2018 will be held downtown, steps away from Broadway, Avenue of the Arts and Music Row!
Art Nashville will host 60+ international art galleries. Our mission is to host a cross section of Nashville, the old and the new. We want to bring all aspects of Arttogether.
Art Nashville 2018 will showcase both Nashville the city and Nashville the creative center and highlight its ascension as a blossoming center of the arts and culture.
Music City is becoming globally recognized as a hub for the Arts. From Nashville’s long history as Music City to its rich culinary scene. From the Nashville Symphony to the new Ascend Amphitheater, Nashville is Art.
Downtown Nashville keeps blooming, collectives and artist projects and new galleries are popping up. Surrounding areas like East Nashville and Wedgewood/Houston are becoming hubs of creativity. The handful of established galleries on North 5th Avenue as known as Avenue of the Arts showcase international renowned artists as well as emerging local talent.
There is much more to come. @art_nashville
