Who We Are |
What We Do |
The Franklin County Arts Guild is an organization of local artists and supportive members who are interested in promoting fine arts and crafts in Franklin County and the surrounding area in Tennessee. The primary focus is on advancing and providing arts education and awareness for youth and the general public. We actively seek venues for local artists to exhibit, showcase, and sell work. These are a few of the ways that we promote the arts:
The Guild is particularly supportive of up-and-coming artists. Each year, we award a $1,000 scholarship to one or more youths high school seniors who is interested in pursuing the arts at the college level. We hold fundraising events like Arts & Ales to raise money for the scholarship.

Everyone welcome!
The Guild is guided by dedicated members who manage the gallery, communicate with members, make connections in the community, do the books, and inspire volunteers. Guild members are all volunteers who bring their talents to create an environment where artistic people can learn, grow, and flourish. Guild meetings take place at the Artisan Depot and the dates are announced quarterly. Ways You Can Get Involved
