Nashville, TN has always been a gathering place for artists and musicians. 909 Flats is proud of our citys cultural heritage; thats why this month we want to feature the Frist Center for the Visual Arts on our blog. We encourage all of our residents to visit the Frist this month.
The Frist Center for the Visual Arts states that its vision is to inspire people through art to look at their world in new ways. The Frist has been fostering the education of young artists since it first opened in 2001. Their exhibits change frequently, so if theres something you want to see, make time to see it now! Here are four exhibits the Frist is putting on this month.
