Weekend Arts Preview 8/24 – 8/25

Defy the urge to stream and get out to the Defy Film Festival at Studio 615 this weekend. Discover new art in North Nashville at the Jefferson Street Art Crawl and support great organizations at the TPAC Gala & the Podcast Party, a fundraiser for public radio. Cap it off your night with Songwriters Under the Stars at Cheekwood. The weather is cooling off, so it’s a great time to get out of the house and enjoy Nashville’s creative offerings!
