Step into James-Ben Studio & Gallery Art Center, where you can reflect upon original creations in comfortable, low-key surroundings.
Located in historic Morgan Square on Main Street in downtown Greeneville, this combination jewelry studio and art gallery displays and sells works by local and regional artisans and presents solo exhibits throughout the year.
Handmade gifts and works you will enjoy displaying in your home or office abound in this eclectic gallery. Prices vary as much as the art!
We are very proud that our patrons are now defining us as a "destination gallery," well worth the trip to Greeneville. While you're here, we hope you'll enjoy our unique, historic downtown, anchored by the home of the 17th president, Andrew Johnson.

"BUDDIES" by Caroline Blanks is from her one-woman-show IMPRESSIONS: ART AT NPAC. Caroline's ability to catch light and movement on canvas is very subtle and yet powerful. Within the context of Immpressionism, her utilization of realistict detail becomes captivating as one views Caroline's work.
Aren't Caroline's pet portraits superb?They're commissioned via the Gallery.
Valentines' Day is Jane's 4th anniversary with the Art Center and her tastier and tastier, unique chocolate treats have only gotten bettter and better. Our european - style, tempered truffles, hand- dipped especially for us by our East Tennessee chocolatier Jane Wilson, are the best I've ever tasted (believe me, I've tasted truffles... )!
In practical terms, the quality Jane creates comes from a higher percentage cacao which she uses that yields a bonus in both anti-oxidants and flavor. Above all, it is the fact that she brings both artistry and a playfulness to her confections that makes them irresistible.
The one thing you really need to know is we ran out last year! MAKE YOUR RESERVATIONS EARLY THIS YEAR!
