The Forge Nashville Presents
The Forge Front Lawn
Sept 19th
217 Willow St.
Join us for a one-night celebration of all the makers and artists who call The Forge their creative home. This year, we’re throwing a block party, filling our 'front lawn' with artist-designed metal flamingos—each one a unique, sculptural take on the classic lawn ornament—and opening our doors for an evening of exhibitions, music, drinks, and a Family Recipe Contest. We'll also have an opportunity to auction the flamingos as well as our annual Member Showcase, live studio demos, and a few unexpected moments tucked throughout the space.
This event raises critical funds for The Forge’s community programs—studio scholarships, youth education, and our Future Makers initiative. Your ticket directly supports working artists, future students, and everything it takes to keep a space like this thriving. It also includes access to the party, open bar, and a table full of lovingly made family-style dishes.
