The Casa Azafrán Art Gallery is a community centered art gallery which opens space for Latinx and immigrant origin artists to share their voices, perspectives and art. It also features community-led art that explores issues of relevance to the immigrant community around belonging and identity.
Each year, with the support of our sponsors, Conexión Américas hosts three art exhibitions, one curated and created by program participants, and two featuring the work of guest artists. These exhibitions not only provide a platform for often underrepresented artists to present and sell their work, but also showcase the broad talents of Nashville’s immigrant community.

Beyond her art, Sharley has dedicated years to serving her community, particularly by inspiring and mentoring children and youth.
