Even Santa needs a car sometimes! When he does, he makes sure it has a Tennessee Arts plate!

He knows that the plates help support the arts in Tennessee by funding grants that go to organizations like the Design Center!

That deal sounds sweeter than warm cookies and milk! 🍪

The best way to see Fall is by driving down windy country roads.

Well, there is *one* thing that would make it better: driving around with a Tennessee Arts plate on your vehicle. They help support the expansion of the arts in Tennessee by funding grants to orgs just like us!

Have you heard the news about the Tennessee Arts plates? People are *dying* to get them. ☠️

The plates help the expansion of the arts in TN through grants to orgs like the us, so get one as soon as you can.

Because driving around without one is just too scary. 🎃👻

Summer's here!

Things to remember on that trip to the beach: shades, sunscreen, and a Tennessee Arts plate for your ride.

Each plate funds grants that are awarded to orgs like us. That's the best way to start your holiday. ☀️

Our Celebration wouldn't have been the same if we didn't have such a gorgeous setting, so we want to give a special shout-out and say thank you to Johnson Architecture for the work they did transforming the former chapel at Lakeshore into the pavilion now called Marble Hall!
