Names you'll run into include Brown County Art Guild and Brown County Art Gallery. If a gallery's missing from Nashville's list, it probably just hasn't been mapped yet.

Gallery tips for Nashville

A few things worth knowing before you work through Nashville's art galleries:

• The café is part of the visit at Brown County Art Guild. If the gallery has a café, use it. Lingering over coffee after the show is half the experience.
• Go to opening nights at Brown County Art Gallery. Free entry, the artists in the room, and a crowd that wants to talk about the work. The best gallery experience there is.
• Read the wall text. It's short and it's there to help. Even the cryptic ones give you a way into the work.
• Ask about the price list. It's normal to ask, even if you're not buying. It tells you how the market values the work.

Good to know

We searched about 40 km around Nashville — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new art gallery in Nashville can take a while to appear. The 2 above are only as current as the community map. A art gallery that's shut, or a new one nobody's added yet, gets fixed with a single OpenStreetMap edit.

We don't review exhibitions — shows change too fast. What we list is the where: real galleries, verified by real mappers.

If you run one of the 2 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.
