Art by Design
March 25-29, 2026
Art by Design is a curated series of events and presentations designed to highlight Memphis’ interior design community and simultaneously support the local arts community.
Centered around vignettes and arts activations in a gallery showroom format, this production was founded in 2016 by Greg Baudoin and has raised nearly $1M in support of ARTSmemphis grantmaking to artists and arts groups.
Art by Design includes special ticketed events and general admission. Be among the first to experience Art by Design at the exclusive Preview Party, experience the magic of Art by Design at Evening in the Garden, support artists & makers during Morning at the Marketplace, and don’t miss a chance to party from room to room during Cocktails by Design! Tickets to all events available soon!
Enjoy the showroom and immerse yourself in lectures, tours, arts experiences and more.
For questions regarding, design, retail, art or garden opportunities, or additional involvement, contact Josie Ballin.
