Art Around Town
Art Around Town is a new program designed to bring local artwork into community businesses and public spaces on a rotating basis throughout Overton County.
This initiative makes art accessible to everyone in our community. Most of us are not able to visit far away museums or art galleries on a regular basis. Art Around Town brings art directly to the places that the people of Overton County visit every day, while at the same time enlivening our shared spaces and showcasing the incredible talent of regional artists.
There is no cost to participate. OCAC will coordinate every aspect of the program, including hanging the artwork and ensuring that it is safely returned to its owner at the end of the designated period of display.
Businesses, artists, and collectors interested in participating in the Art Around Town program are encouraged to contact OCAC at info@overtoncountyarts.org.
"First National Bank is honored to be the first participant in this innovative program," said Ken Dodson, FNB Community President. "These beautiful paintings not only enhance our office environment but they also celebrate our community's heritage and create a more welcoming space for our customers and staff."
The public is invited to visit First National Bank's West Main Office during regular business hours to view the artwork and experience firsthand how art can transform a public space.
