Liquidambar Art Gallery, 7 miles south of Dunlap, on the banks of Hicks Creek, is now open for visitors on Saturdays and Sundays from 11am to 4 pm or by appointment.
Cross the creek to visit the Gallery located in the magical heart of the Sequatchie Valley.
Enjoy a visual feast of art by local artists featuring ceramics, flameworked glass, metal ornaments, sculptures, kaleidoscopes, and paintings. Discover gallery displays of unique work by Carol Kimmons, Patrick Ironwood, Michelle Kimmons and Asha Ironwood, plus visiting artists.
Visitors to the Gallery are also welcome to hike on our labeled nature trails through 300 acres of protected forest up the western side of the beautiful Sequatchie Valley. Dress for adventure!
Naturalist-guided spring wildflower hikes and half-day tours are available and are suitable for all ages. We can tailor tours for scouts, college and school classes, and special interest groups. The yearly Holiday Reception at the Gallery will take place on December 14.
