Jerry's Artarama of Knoxville

09/18/2026

It’s time for the Tennessee Valley Fair! Each year Jerry’s Artarama of Knoxville is proud to sponsor the Tennessee Valley Fair Student Art Show. The exhibition is open to students in grades 6 through 12 who attend public, private, or homeschools in East Tennessee.

The Best of Show winner’s artwork is framed by our frame shop manager, Dorothy Weekley, before becoming part of the Jerry’s Artarama/Rechenbach permanent collection. Established in 1976, the collection is housed at the Knoxville Museum of Art.

Congratulations to this year’s winner, Ella Cook from L&N STEM Academy! And congratulations to all the students whose work was selected, as well as the dedicated teachers who make it all possible. Be sure to check out the show before the fair ends on September 20.
