Associations

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.

For the Community

Providing educational opportunities and outreach to the community has always been an important part of the mission of TAL.

Some of our programs include: Partnering with Metro Nashville schools to provide professional artists teaching "At-Risk"
youth in underserved schools.

The TAL donates professional artist materials and donates two months of our galleries to a Metro Schools Art Exhibition.

A1LabArts has an uber-cool exhibition space and gallery in the Fireproof Storage building at 201 Randolph Street in Knoxville's Old City. You'd think you were in Amsterdam or in the nyc village.
