The See America Project has only made stops in New York, San Francisco, and Bahrain, and this summer, both Tomato Head locations will host the exhibit during June and July.
It’s a crowd-sourced project from Creative Action Network and National Parks Conservation Association inspired by the See America posters from the New Deal era, which have been re-imagined for the 21st Century. Over 600 posters were submitted and a selection of them is currently on display in Market Square until July 6. The exhibit will then move to our location in the Gallery Shopping Center located at 7240 Kingston Pike until August 3. By clicking on the image below, you can read more about the project in the latest issue of Metro Pulse.
Stop by Market Square to learn how you can win this framed poster from Tennessee artist Matt Brass.

This month at the Market Square store, you’ll find acrylic and watercolor paintings from Knoxville resident Dawn Hawkins. Dawn’s work is recognizable from previous shows at Gallery 133 and Gallery Nuance, and the current show at The Tomato Head Market Square lasts from now until March 1.
The photography from Leigh Cooper Creative has moved to The Gallery Shopping Center and will be on display for the remainder of February.
