While some depict the river and its wildlife, others showcase the nearby countryside.

“We are delighted to have The Chestnut Group help us support our mission of protecting Tennessee’s natural treasures and clean water in such a unique way,” says Dorie Bolze, executive director of HRWA. “For those who visit the show, it’s a great opportunity to take a little piece of the State Scenic Harpeth and its many special places home with you.”

Oils and watercolors are available in a range of sizes and prices. Sale hours are 10am to 6pm August 19 and 20.

“The mission of HRWA is very closely aligned with our own,” says Chestnut president Janice Stevens. “We are delighted to use our artwork to draw attention to the need for conservation and preservation of the beautiful landscapes of Middle Tennessee, including that of the Harpeth River.”
