Choose Chattanooga is pleased to announce that Phase V of our artist relocation program is currently underway. Phases I-IV of ArtsMove helped relocate 30 working artists into neighborhoods throughout Chattanooga’s urban core. Their contribution to our city’s revitalization has been invaluable, their commitment to the arts community unquestionable.

Phase V of ArtsMove encompasses a larger swath of the city, and we hope the evolution of this program will help us bring even more creatives to Chattanooga’s vibrant arts community.

Choose Chattanooga’s vision is that people in all walks of life, from near and far, experience Chattanooga as a community that embraces a broad spectrum of artists, encourages their endeavors, and creates a dynamic space for them to live and work. Our city values creativity and inspiration and sees practicing artists as an essential part of our cultural renaissance. Everyday, downtown Chattanooga becomes a more vibrant place to pursue creative ventures. ArtsMove brings artists working in all disciplines to this constantly evolving creative cityscape.

This opportunity is open to artists in a wide variety of creative enterprises: performing arts, 2D and 3D visual arts, literary arts, culinary arts, and more. ArtsMove’s full and part-time practicing artists make a commitment to live within 3.5 miles of downtown for at least one year. Click here (link to MOVE page) to view a map of the ArtsMove footprint.

We offer $2,500 to cover moving expenses, and an opportunity to join a creative community flourishing in the Scenic City. Bring your artistic endeavors, and a spirit for sharing.
