Need Something To Do?
TPAC Staff
If you need something to do this weekend, especially indoors since it will be pretty hot, I recommend checking out the John Mellencamp art exhibit at the TN State Museum. This museum is our neighbor in the James K. Polk building at 505 Deaderick St. What’s great is that you can bring the kids along to learn some cool stuff about TN, and simultaneously take in one of the best art exhibits in Nashville right now for free.
I had a chance to check out Mellencamp’s art last night. The faces of his work share details of his memories and experiences with those who look into their eyes. It’s nice to think that you are looking at the artist’s emotional connection to the people he chose to paint and, in turn, understanding the artist himself. This exhibit marks the first museum tour of Mellencamp’s work.
Nothing Like I Planned: The Art of John Mellencamp will be showing at the TN State Museum until June 10. For more information
