Activating the environment through public art and creative placemaking

 

WHAT WE’RE ALL ABOUT

We are a Tennessee-based nonprofit devoted to art activations, community improvement through paint, elevation of society, smart economic development, artistic education and support, and the transformation of rural regions into hubs of vibrant color and inspiration.

SUPPORT THE ARTS

Every mural project is a labor of love—one that often requires years of hustling for walls and funds. Our goal is to gift the arts to everyone by curating and facilitating publicly accessible works, and many of our mural projects are made possible due to grants from the Tennessee Arts Commission. The Tennessee Arts Commission offers a variety of distinct funding opportunities to encourage participation in the arts throughout all 95 counties in the state. Purchase an arts Tennessee Specialty License Plate—there are four Tennessee Arts Commission plates options available (Tennesseans for the Arts, Cool Cat, Fish, Rainbow)—and your contribution will support even more public art activations throughout Tennessee.
