ClearStory Arts: Where Chattanooga’s Creative Energy Comes to Life

Located in a repurposed factory building just outside of downtown Chattanooga, ClearStory Arts is one of the city’s most dynamic and community-driven art spaces. With working studios, rotating exhibitions, events, and workshops, it’s a creative hub where art isn't just viewed—it’s made, shared, and celebrated.

The space is home to dozens of working artists across disciplines including painting, printmaking, ceramics, photography, mixed media, and more. Visitors can walk the halls during Open Studio Nights, attend gallery shows in the communal space, or even book creative workshops and private events.

ClearStory isn’t a traditional gallery—it’s a living, breathing creative space where the public gets an authentic look at how art is made. Its raw industrial aesthetic only adds to the charm, making it a favorite among artists, collectors, and community members alike.
