First Tennessee Bank ArtForum
For the fifth time since the opening of the FedExForum, the UrbanArt Commission is facilitating the selection of artwork to display in the First Tennessee Bank Club Level at the arena.
A committee will select up to 4 artists to exhibit artwork such as paintings, photographs, drawings, prints, or 3-dimensional works. Selected artists will receive a $2500 honorarium and will have his or her artwork installed in the First Tennessee Club Level at FedExForum for one year.
The deadline for artists to submit work for consideration is September 8, and they will be notified by mid-September. A reception will be held at the arena in early October.
