Maker Exchange: Curio & Grid Wall Interest Form

Dogwood Arts is proud to curate and showcase the incredible talent of local makers inside The Curio at Maker Exchange — a one-of-a-kind retail gallery located in the heart of Downtown Knoxville.

Connected to the Downtown Marriott and Tennessean Hotels, Maker Exchange welcomes a constant stream of visitors from across the country alongside locals who gather here for events, workshops, and the on-site coffee shop and restaurant. It’s the perfect place to connect artists with both new audiences and loyal supporters.

In the past year alone, Dogwood Arts facilitated the sale of more than 200 original works by local artists. Artwork is sold on consignment in this dynamic retail setting, giving makers a chance to shine in front of thousands of potential buyers.

Pieces are typically available for a minimum of 4 weeks and up to 6 months, with display options ranging from glass cabinets and wall space to larger floor displays. We are currently accepting submissions of both 2-D and 3-D artwork — including large-scale pieces. (Please ensure that all 2-D work is ready to hang upon delivery.)
