If it's autumn, it's time for Artclectic, Nashville's can't-miss extravaganza featuring a weekend of beautiful art, festive parties, and artsy events for the whole family, Thursday, Oct. 24 through Saturday, Oct. 26. Presented by CapWealt, this year's gallery will feature 60 renowned artists from around the country, chosen by a panel of expert jurors. Art lovers will see an eclectic mix of paintings, photography, ceramics, jewelry, sculpture, and more. Thousands of Nashvillians are expected to attend Artclectic, now in its 23rd year.
 
The three-day celebration kicks off Thursday, Oct. 24 with an elegant Patrons Party.
