Art & Soul

Art & Soul is a place—a studio in West Nashville that is a richly stimulating and engaging environment where many kinds of visual art, dance and movement, sounding and voice, writing, poetry and other creative explorations take place. 

Arunima Orr—painter, writer, performance artist and teacher—is founder and director of Art & Soul, a studio opened in 1988 and dedicated to artistic growth, creative development and healing and transformation through the arts.  

Art & Soul is a space—where a journey of discovery begins when you walk in the door. It may be for a day or for several weeks or months or years. Your journey is profoundly individual, but not alone. You are held in a multi-dimensional context which includes a community of fellow seekers, as well as an atmosphere of freedom, trust, respect, caring and non-judgment.
