 ArtScape Hendersonville is an annually changing, outdoor public-arts project that enriches the appeal of Hendersonville. Thirty banners displaying the original artwork of Henderson County artists are hung on Main Street, and the downtown avenues

 ArtScape’s corridor of colorful, waving banners brightens and enlivens Hendersonville’s historic downtown area and creates a unique outdoor art gallery for tourists and locals. The ongoing support of this annual display confirms Hendersonville’s commitment to art, creativity, and culture. They demonstrate tangibly the strong connection between the arts, local businesses, organizations, and individual art lovers.   

ArtScape Hendersonville was founded in 2017 and is a program of the Art League of Henderson County.

      You do not have to create a piece of work that is square, but keep in mind that the image on the banner will be square.
      We do not squeeze an image to fit a square, but crop the image to square.  3-D images should have a suitable background to work in a square format.

    • Banners are displayed up high on a light pole. Thus, vibrant, high-contrast entries might be most appealing.
