Alabama Arts Trail

Discover Alabama's Visual Arts

The Alabama Arts Trail is a free, statewide directory of the people and places shaping visual art in Alabama — artists, galleries, museums, arts organizations, colleges and universities, arts centers, and more.

ALVAN built the Trail to make one thing simple: finding Alabama's visual arts community in a single place. Browse artist profiles, plan visits to galleries and museums, and find programs and organizations near you.

Whether you're an artist, an educator, a collector, a student, or just curious, the Trail is a way to see what's happening in visual art across the state — and to find your way into it.

Be Part of the Trail

Joining the Trail is free and helps new audiences discover your work.

As a Trail artist, you'll:

• Get statewide visibility for your work

• Connect with collectors, curators, and art enthusiasts

• Get invited to Trail events, exhibits, and features

• Join a network of artists and organizations across Alabama

Participation is open to eligible artists and visual arts organizations across Alabama. We review each submission before it goes live, so the Trail stays accurate and something people can trust.

The more artists and organizations who join, the fuller the picture of Alabama's creative landscape becomes. We hope you'll be part of it.
