Columbia Arts Council

Meet some of the most creative, talented artists and makers here in our community and around the region. We enjoy the chance to tell their stories and help showcase their inspiring works of art.

 

Interested in being part of the local artists registry? If you live in the Middle Tennessee region, send us an email with a great artist bio, a fabulous headshot, 2-4 images of your art, and your contact information so others can reach out if they are interested in your work or have a commission project that might be a good fit for you.

Visual Artists

The visual arts include painting, sculpture, graphics, drawing, architecture, film, photography, conceptual art and printmaking.

Artisans

Skilled craftsmen who make their art mostly or in part by hand in the areas of glass, pottery, textiles, jewelry, metal, furniture, foods, brews, spirits, and other hand-crafted goods.

Performing Artists
