Upcoming Art Show - "Untitled" Turns 18!

In case you're not familiar with the Untitled Artists Group, they're a long-standing organization that's been putting on art shows and bringing art to non-traditional locations around Nashville. I recently accepted a nomination to become part of their board of directors. It looks like this upcoming show is going to be incredible. The number of artists signing up, the amazing location, and the buzz is impressive.

Attached is the poster and the press release. They need more Smyrna artists - so if you're out there, jump in!



FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BARELY LEGAL ART SHOW COMES TO NASHVILLE

(Nashville, TN) – Somewhere… deep in the heart of Nashville… an 18-year-old is getting WAY too crazy! It’s Friday night – do you know where YOUR local arts organization is? You do now! Come join the Nashville Untitled Artist’s Group for its 18th birthday at ICON in the Gulch. That’s right – the groundbreaking artists collective is all grown up!

The party happens on March 13th from 6 – 10PM. Enjoy great art, cold cocktails, and fascinating people in a relaxed non-traditional environment. A wide variety of artists are participating and most of the works are for sale. Street art, traditional art, sculpture, photography… if you can dream it up, it’s probably been at one of our shows.

Even better? This show takes place at the hippest development to hit Nashville since the cotton gin. ICON in the Gulch is a creative person’s dreamscape, featuring luxury loft living in the midst of Music City. Once you step in you won’t want to leave. Tours of ready-to-move-in units will take place throughout the evening. You’re also invited to a special cocktail reception in ICON’s ultra lounge on the rooftop pool deck. Show up early and take a tour… or just hang out high above the city, chatting up artists and enjoying the ambience. Let ICON treat you like a celebrity.

Also participating in “Barely Legal,” the Nashville Film Festival will be screening some celluloid magic with its “Best of the Fest” shorts collection, showing adjacent to the gallery space. And Music City’s favorite music man, DJ Synapse Trap, will be serving up a hot helping of fresh and funky grooves.

Bring your best pair of eyes, your beau, and your bad self on down to “Barely Legal.” We guarantee you’ll fall in love with the Nashville visual arts scene during Untitled’s 18th Birthday Extravaganza. I mean, seriously… we’d show up for your birthday!

“Barely Legal” takes place at 600 12th Avenue S, Suite 4. Find out more at www.untitlednashville.org or e-mail info@untitlednashville.org.
