Best Art-Space Conversion

A community’s response to a crisis can sometimes mitigate the devastation that preceded it. After the March 3 tornado tore through Nashville, Elephant Gallery turned into an essential hub for the North Nashville community, which was among the city’s most heavily impacted. The gallery, helmed by artist Alex Lockwood, acted quickly, offering everything from drop-off laundry services and electronic charging stations to supplies like flashlights and batteries and hot meals, all while amplifying the services of Gideon’s Army and other community members.
