Two-Tone's History

Two-Tone Art Gallery opened on April 10, 2013. It is the brain child of Todd Wilson, a tattoo artist in Murfreesboro, TN. An avid painter, Todd wanted a space to not only create and showcase his own art but to allow other local artists to create and showcase art of all styles and media. The past two years have been a whirlwind of growth and learning experiences for us.

Two-Tone's Future

Todd plans on opening his own tattoo shop in the rooms behind the art gallery early next year. We are excited at the thought of this new endeavor bringing more traffic into the gallery, and want to make sure it's prepared for the influx. As interest grows, we want to be able to improve our business to best fit the art needs of our community. Note: None of the money raised in this campaign will fund supplies for the tattoo shop - it is all going toward updating the gallery.

What We Need

  • paint for the walls/ceilings
  • trim for the baseboards & crown molding
  • supplies to build mobile walls, providing more display space
  • a sturdy stool for the employee working the register
  • comfortable seating for customers
  • lockers for artists to store supplies
  • a filing cabinet to store paperwork
  • a sturdy glass display case
  • smaller display cases for local papers, postcard-sized prints, jewelry, etc.
  • an easel or two to both display art and for the use of artists
  • a proper gallery hanging system
  • better lighting, including track lighting along the ceiling
  • a projection system to allow new ways of art expression
  • Advertising! Business cards, fliers, ads in papers and on the radio, etc.

Unmet Goal?

Doesn't matter! Every dollar will help us! While we would love to get everything on our wish list, even $50 will allow us to buy some much-needed lumber and paint. Whether you can donate $5 or $500, we assure you that we will find a useful purpose for every cent given during this campaign.

What You Get:

Amazing local art! Several local artists believe in our message and have agreed to help us raise funds by donating prints, originals, and commissions as Perks for this campaign.

Liz Kelly Zook has been drawing, creating, painting, sewing, etc for as long as she can remember and doesn't ever plan on stopping. She likes to take a things that are dark and let some light in; or take things that are typically fun and add a twist.

Ryan Frizzell, a.k.a. "The Rhinovirus", is a mixed media artist / illustrator. His goal is to make as much art as possible, and show it to as many people as possible.
