Red Arrow was founded in 2006 in Joshua Tree, California, and relocated to Nashville, Tennessee, in 2014.  Beginning with bold roots in the desert, the gallery has since become a cornerstone of Nashville’s contemporary art scene.

Helmed by Gallerist Katie Shaw and Director Ashley Layendecker, Red Arrow Gallery has always been women-led.

Red Arrow champions artists with local/international ties whose work feels fresh, uncompromising, and inspired. The gallery connects southern-based artists with the global contemporary art conversation while introducing outside perspectives to Nashville, further establishing the city as a growing hub for arts and culture.

With a program rooted in collaboration, care, and rigor, Red Arrow is committed to building artists' careers, fostering relationships, and putting Nashville and its artists on the international map.
