Carousel Fine Art began with a single room in Miami. On Thursday, November 5, 2026, from 5 to 8 PM, it opens its fifth city, with a new gallery at 469 Chestnut Street in Nashville’s Wedgewood-Houston neighborhood. Nashville is Carousel’s first gallery in Tennessee and joins Miami, West Palm Beach, Atlanta and Chicago, and the footprint is still growing.
Where is Carousel Fine Art’s Nashville gallery?
Find Carousel Fine Art Nashville at 469 Chestnut Street, Nashville, TN 37203, in Wedgewood-Houston, the former industrial district just south of downtown that many refer to as WeHo. Fort Negley Park is close by, and the music venue The Truth is on the same block. Private viewings are available by appointment. Call +1 (786) 475-9124, text +1 (813) 203-0480 or write to hello@carouselartgroup.com.
The space is a boutique gallery showing original works by emerging and established artists from around the world. Exhibitions rotate, so the walls will never look the same twice. Stay up to date on our Nashville gallery page.
Why Wedgewood-Houston is where Nashville goes to look at art
WeHo started as an industrial district and kept a maker’s streak. Today the neighborhood holds galleries, design studios, a 10,000-square-foot makerspace at Fort Houston, restaurants, cocktail bars and coffee shops, all within a few blocks of each other.
On the first Saturday of every month, WeHo stays open late for the WeHo Art Crawl, a free evening that starts at 6 PM and brings in more than a dozen venues. If the neighborhood keeps its usual schedule, the November crawl lands on Saturday, November 7, two days after Carousel opens.
Why Nashville, and why now?
Nashville is among the ten fastest-growing in the country. Towers are rising downtown. Every new home and condo has a wall that needs an answer.
Gallery-to-You was built for exactly that question. With Gallery-to-You, Carousel brings a curated selection of artworks to your house, so you can see how a piece changes your own walls and feel the connection before you decide.
The gallery’s founders, Laura and Philippe Horowicz, have started Carousel on a belief that collecting should be personal and pleasurable Nashville is a natural place to keep that belief.
Meet Beau Simmons, the photographer at the grand opening
Beau Simmons started in fashion, shooting for Marc Jacobs, Guess Jeans and Converse. Then he went to ranches. He has spent long stretches on working ranches, including the King Ranch and the Four Sixes Ranch, photographing cowboys on medium and large-format film. He names Richard Avedon, Slim Aarons and Stephen Shore among his influences.
The process is slow by design: film developed in a darkroom, then scanned and printed on archival materials. Each edition is limited to ten, signed, numbered and issued with a certificate of authenticity. Titles such as The World Needs More Cowboys, The World Needs More Cowgirls and The Frosty Drive In point at his subjects: working cowboys, the American West and a roadside drive-in. He is based in South Carolina, and he will be at the opening to meet guests.
What collecting with Carousel looks like in Nashville
Carousel is a full-service gallery, so one relationship covers the whole process. A dedicated advisor learns your taste and your space, then brings you the right work at the right moment, often the piece you did not know you were looking for. The gallery finds the work, advises on what fits, frames it, installs it, ships it and cares for the collection for years. You never have to chase a detail.
Collectors also get private previews before new work goes public, a first look at fresh arrivals, and invitations to collector dinners, gallery events and artist meet-and-greets. A Nashville collector gets the rest of the network too: Miami, the NORA District in West Palm Beach, Buckhead Village and Lenox Square in Atlanta, and Superior Street in Chicago.
