Thanks to a partnership with ArtsBuild, your next grocery shopping trip will be like walking into a gallery at the Walmart in Hixson, located at 5764 TN-153.

Co-founder of SPLASH + local artist Iantha Newton’s “You Come to Art - Art Comes to You: Walmart Pop-Up Art Exhibit” features a six-panel acrylic on canvas painting. With nods to the Garden of Eden, the work showcases the abundance of life.

“Through my large-scale artwork, I aim to offer visitors an immersive art experience that celebrates the beauty of nature and the life abundant therein. Nature’s timeless narratives resonate with us all.” — Iantha Newton

The piece is part of ArtsBuild’s Artists Work Grants program that allows creatives to connect their mediums to the community in public spaces. The exhibit will be up throughout September.
