Art Works Foundation announces Art in The Loop, an Art Festival in Memphis, TN (formerly Art Squared), Friday, April 6th – Sunday, April 8th, 2018.

Art in The Loop will be staged in east Memphis, near Poplar & I-240, on Ridgeway Loop Road. This unique site is situated in between 1.5 million square feet of high level offices and one of Memphis' most exclusive residential areas (the founders of FedEx & AutoZone live right around the corner), In addition to offices, the area boasts several hotels (including the Memphis Hilton) and a 4 screen Cinema dedicated to films attractive to the over 45 audiences; there is even a trendy Mega-Church in view of our festival site, from which we hope to pick up additional traffic on Sunday.  Our Sponsors include: WKNO TV & FM, the local PBS & NPR Affiliates.

Art in The Loop will feature – and focus on the sale of – stellar works of art in metal, glass, clay, wood, fiber, jewelry, sculpture, paintings & photography, and more.  We will limit the number of artists by category, and are more concerned about the quality of work presented than the number of spaces we sell: from 40 to 60 artists will be admitted this first year.

All Artists selected will have corner spaces during this inaugural year.

We expect Art in The Loop to benefit greatly from its location in the most affluent part of Memphis, and its close proximity to the up-scale suburb of Germantown TN.

This unique event embraces the imperfect or flawed ‘seconds’ that never see the light of commerce, as well as the best each artist has to offer; the only "seconds" show in the southeast!

The Blue Light Special Art Show will be held December 8-9th from 9-4 on Saturday and 11-4 on Sunday at Cahaba ClayWorks and Earthborn Studios located at 7575 Parkway Drive in Leeds—just up the hill from the Bass Pro Shop. 
 

We have over 50 artists at this last-show-of-the-Christmas season. Artists that make their living selling at various art shows generally end up with pieces that have been nicked or otherwise damaged in the constant loading and unloading that they do. This is their opportunity to sell these pieces at a discount as well as present the very best they have to offer.
 

The show is inside a 24K sq. ft. building so folks can shop, have lunch, stay out of the weather and give back to the community all in one visit.  Join with us to support ‘Empty Bowls’ a hunger-prevention endeavor pairing local potters and local Chefs who will be providing lunch. For a nominal donation ($25) you’ll get hot soup and bread, with a hand made Earthborn porridge bowl, which you keep as a reminder of all the empty bowls in the world. Proceeds go to First Light Women’s Shelter. There is a modest $2 entry fee we share with First Light also.
