Venues

Event Venues
Untitled shows typically include 60-100 artists, and attract 500-1000 patrons over the course of the evening. Untitled shows are free and open to the public. All artists are welcome to participate. Untitled does not reject or censor artwork.
Untitled has a large volunteer network, and will provide all of our own publicity, installation, security and clean-up. We also provide our own walls, pedestals, lights and extension cords. We will not hammer, screw into or hang art on venue walls without express permission. If the venue does not serve beverages and food, we will bring our own wine and snacks to serve our patrons. If the venue is a bar or restaurant, that’s great for us, too. All art will be removed when the show ends at 10:00 PM. Walls, lights and other materials will be removed from the venue the following day.
Untitled will supply security for events where security is not already in place.
While Untitled cannot pay for venue rental, we can provide an exciting event attended by a large, diverse crowd, a promise to transform your venue into an innovative art space for one night, and to leave it in the condition we found it, and an opportunity for you to support the development of visual arts in Middle Tennessee. We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, and all donations to Untitled are tax-deductible. We have shown at a variety of spaces in Nashville, including Werthan Mills Lofts, Bellevue Mall, Essense Day Spa (Essense Room), Marathon Village, the Bar Car, Lucky’s Garage, Bar Twenty3, Layl’a Ultra Lounge, The Anchor Fellowship, Hair of the Dog, Cannery Row Ballroom, Pub of Love, LeQuire Gallery, Limelight Nashville, Buffalo Billiards, Avenue 9, B.B. Kings, and others. We would be happy to provide you with contact information if you would like to talk with someone from one of these venues.
Untitled shows are held on the Friday nearest the change in season each quarter – usually the Friday in the “teens” of March, June, September and December. If you would like to discuss the possibility of hosting an Untitled show, please email info@untitlednashville.org.
