We build relationships across the arts, business, nonprofit, legal, and civic communities—creating partnerships and opportunities that benefit both creatives and the people and institutions that engage them.

In 2021 ABC and Nashville Soccer Club launched a partnership initiative to develop and manage opportunities for local artists at the club’s new stadium.
The first initiatives included the East Entry Concourse Mural, created by Nashville artist WOKE3; Soundwaves Gallery, showcasing work by local artists throughout the stadium; and a series of artist-designed Match Day posters.
The partnership continued to grow with new projects, including a 2023 call for art for large-scale banners on the exterior of the GEODIS Park parking garage, and Soundwaves Gallery continues to showcase Nashville artists today.

In 2025 ABC announced a partnership with Holladay Ventures to develop The Opaline at Artist Hill, a 251-unit affordable, mixed-use community on Dickerson Pike designed with Nashville’s creative community in mind.
In addition to affordable housing for residents earning 60% of the Area Median Income, the development will include nonprofit services, studios and maker spaces for creatives, retail space, expanded child care, and a future WeGo transit center, creating a new model for supporting artists and their families as Nashville grows.
