What's Goin' On? , our painted mural, identifies the rear facade of the Art Center from the center city park and greets visitors as they approach from that direction.
The mural was sponsored by an Arts Build Communities grant from the Tennessee Arts Commission and the Art and Culture Alliance of Knoxville, Walmart, Pittsburgh Paints, and a host of individual contributors. It was designed by artist, Kevin Wright, and created by Mr. Wright and large team of volunteer painters.
