1Californian Art Invasion
Friday, January 13 to Sunday, January 15, 10:00am-5:00pm
215 5th Ave N, Nashville, TN
Chauvet Arts
Nashville will soon be home to a California art invasion. Californians are moving to Nashville in droves. In fact, in the last 5 years, the number of Californians moving to the city has increased by 50%. While some may attribute this migration to the city’s lower cost of living, no state income tax, and Southern hospitality, others say it’s because Nashville is becoming the new Silicon Valley. This new year Chauvet Arts is exhibiting five distinctive California artists. The exhibition, titled “California Art Invasion,” will feature works by James Leonard, Buckley, Deedee Cheriel, Richard Downs and Jason Adams.
