KMA YBK

Since the 1960’s the Knoxville Museum of Art (KMA) has held an engag­ing spot within the Knoxville com­mu­nity. Orig­i­nally known as the Dulin Gallery of Art, the KMA quickly out­grew the beaux-arts man­sion in West Knoxville it once inhabited.

Now, exhibits from across the globe dec­o­rate the walls of the Ten­nessee mar­ble build­ing located near World’s Fair Park. This accred­ited museum boasts 12 full-time and 18 part-time pro­fes­sional staff that orches­trate events for over 2,300 annual mem­ber­ships. Knoxville has cre­ated a cul­ture here at the KMA, as it serves as a meet­ing place for pro­fes­sion­als and fam­i­lies through­out our com­mu­nity. For Knoxville to grow into a unique city we must sup­port our arts and culture.

The KMA is excep­tion­ally wor­thy of our very first YBK (You’ve Been Knox­i­fied!) award. Their empha­sis on local and regional artists as well as their out­reach to the com­mu­nity help make Knoxville a bet­ter place to live and play.
