Press Release:
“
Nashville, TN – The popular neighborhood commercial district – Riverside Village – will magically transform into a “fairy garden” next month as Lockeland Design Center launches its second annual art show and sale April 17 from 5:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m.
Over 300 students, the artist group “Collective Muse,” and 14 East Nashville artists will showcase original artwork throughout the village area, highlighting the school’s best in painting, sculpture, mixed media, and a kinetic work all focusing on the theme of “In The Fairy Garden.” Lockeland Design Center, a K-4 school located in historic East Nashville, partnered with Riverside Village due to its easily accessible venues and diverse collection of creative and family-friendly businesses.
Camille Spadafino, Lockeland's art teacher and the event’s coordinator, says it’s the ideal location for the event. “Twelve stores and restaurants will be showcasing Lockeland’s inspiring new art work on walls, hanging from ceilings and in the outdoor courtyard garden itself. They’re all within a two-block area so visitors can see a lot of beautiful creations and also enjoy all the neighborhood restaurants and stores. It is exciting to see adults from our community inspiring and being inspired by children in art. This show conveys creative partnerships on many levels, and you will see that in the way the work is installed.”
Dan Heller, the developer of Riverside Village, sees the event as a unique partnership that builds solid communities. “I think when local businesses support local schools, good things happen. This will be a really fun event that I expect will help strengthen the connections within our community.”
Famed artist Herb Williams, who volunteered to be the guest artist for his child’s class, has given his time to help guide and inspire many of the students in creating their own work. “It’s really a privilege to work with these Lockeland students,” Williams said. “I was stunned by the high level of work many of these kids are doing. It’s very inspiring.”
Artists Beth Inglish, Jodi Reeves, Michelle Sharp, Mike Stutz, Carrie Fanning, David Harper, Katherine Sjoblom, Johnny Downs, Michelle Fuqua, Hosanna Banks, Rob Hollett, Angel Price, and Bob and Sam Tyler have inspired and are being inspired by the Lockeland students as well.
Riverside Village businesses Mitchell Deli, Watanabe Sushi, Sip CafĂ©, Mike’s Ice Cream, East Nashville School of Music, Salon Studios, Studio 1406, Tyler’s Finer Thrift and East Nashville Guitars and Bailey & Cato’s Restaurant will all be showcasing Lockeland artwork on their walls—inside and outside—with special promotions and menu items for visitors to the event. Costumed fairies, gnomes and elves will also be roaming around the area offering entertainment to children and adults alike.
The “In The Fairy Garden” art show and sale will be held April 17th from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. The artwork will remain on display until May 10th.
