Calendar of Events

The Arts & Culture Alliance is pleased to present five new exhibitions at the Emporium Center in downtown Knoxville from October 2-30, 2020. A free reception with the artists will take place on Friday, October 2, from 5:00-8:00 PM. All visitors to the Emporium are asked to wear a mask and maintain physical distancing guidelines. Most of the works are for sale and may be purchased through the close of the exhibition.

The Tennessee Artists Association (TAA) presents its 46th Fall Juried Show, a new exhibition featuring work by both new and longstanding TAA members. TAA was organized in November of 1972 by five artists who wanted to create a “fine art” impact on the Knoxville area. The purpose of TAA is to provide mutual support for artists in the pursuit of artistic expression. This is done through monthly lectures, workshops, demonstrations and volunteer opportunities to share their skills and knowledge. TAA has several opportunities for their members to exhibit at our two annual juried shows and multiple non-juried shows and sales opportunities.

The membership of the TAA has always been composed of experienced artists, beginners, and all levels in between. Many well-known East Tennessee artists have been part of TAA throughout the years. TAA meets on the third Tuesday of each month at 7:00 PM at Westminster Presbyterian Church, 6500 S. Northshore Drive in Knoxville. Guests and prospective members are welcome to join.
