The Art Center is a worthwhile visit. Galleries feature rotating exhibits of works by (mostly)…read moreregional artists and there are studios in active use for classes in pottery, painting, and other visual arts. The annual open show (a juried show that attracts high-quality work) and the annual camera club photo show (also judged professionally) are perennial local favorites in the galleries. The galleries are modest in size (this isn't the Knoxville Museum of Art, whose huge spaces seem like they were for large-scale works) and well-lighted. Admission is free, but the art center is a community nonprofit that always appreciates donations. The Art Center is easy for Oak Ridge visitors (and even residents) to overlook because it's not on a major street. It's not far away though -- in fact, it's only a short walk from sites like the American Museum of Science and Energy, the Oak Ridge Civic Center, and the Peace Bell (or you can drive, which is what most folks do). Operating hours are limited, so call ahead.

The special local artist textile exhibit was our purpose but there was so much more in a small place. Fell in love with a bracket (Xs and Os) displayed but too big for my wrist.

The art market was a rather fun place to stumble upon. It's not just an art gallery, but an actual art co op, so the people you are buying art from art actually the artists (so be careful what you say!). The people working here were super nice, and some of the art was gooorgeous. They not only have paintings, but lots of photography, sculptures (one artist seems to have a particularly odd penchant for vegetable steamers), jewelry, and clothing. The ceramics and jewelry were pretty reasonably priced. Some of the artwork was reasonable, and some both my husband and I both agreed was waaaay overpriced. I imagine since the artists determine the price for their own artwork. There was one painting which I'm now wishing I had bought. Maybe if we have a little extra money next month I'll call and see if it's still there. In any case, we did buy a ceramic vase, which we are now housing our lucky bamboo. Overall, I really liked this little art co cop, and I would gladly go back.

I had just bought nice little handmade earrings and then I saw this incredible chair. It was made by a local mountain area artist, talk about having character. And they delivered it, very kind considering how big it is. $250 was nothing for such an individual piece of work. And the earrings were quite modest, $15, I'd recommend to anyone to stop in and hunt through the various artists' wares.

a wonderful & educational experience. the most fun we have ever had spending money!…read more it was our first time making a purchase in liz beth, & we were pleasantly surprised when liz suggested that they, because our vehicle was too small, take a few pieces to our home so that we could get a feel for them in that space. we were not certain what to expect, but we got so much more! liz & bart, her son, came into our home & spent the next 2 hrs or so offering suggestions on art placement, rehanging art & giving us frank opinions. it did not feel like having a salesperson in our home, liz was actually forthright when she felt like something did not fit & bart had some great ideas on the placement of our existing art. their patience was saintly. of the three pieces they brought, we only ended up keeping one, although they allowed us to hold on to the other overnight, to decide. more amazing than the valuable service they provided, was the fact that they didn't charge a dime for the service. about a week later, we had another art dilemma, so of course we headed to liz beth's. liz picked out a piece that i was dubious of. it actually took a while to bring me around. but she taught us that often decor is best viewed through a photograph. after heeding her advice, & the advice of gregg & anne, some furniture was moved & the piece that was suggested was properly placed. the after affect is wonderful, i only regret i did not listen to her sooner! again we had an issue with art placement. we found a piece at liz beth that we loved & brought it home. sadly, although we love the artist, it did not work, so we returned it. but instead of conceding defeat, anne & liz kept providing options until the right piece was found. we are ecstatic with the piece we decided on & more importantly what it has added to our home. our experience with liz beth has been stress & pressure free; more like going to see friends. we have never been encouraged to buy anything. to the contrary, we were often advised to take a piece home, to get a feel for it in the space. at least once, liz has refused to let us pay for something, cautioning us to take more time for consideration. gregg & anne have learned our taste & are always on the lookout for new pieces. thanks to anne, bart, gregg & liz, our home has become a true showplace for some fantastic pieces. if you are in the market for art, or even framing, don't even consider going anywhere else. the true value liz beth provides is an excellent staff with knowledge of art & design & the best customer service we have ever encountered.
