Carpe Café

You can find wonderful works of art when you go to a museum, but what’s wrong with bringing works of art to where you are, like a coffee shop? That’s the plan at a café in Smyrna, TN specifically designed to surround you with work of local artists. Tennessee Crossroads visited the Carpe Café where you can get a good sandwich and a side order of local creativity. Watch this and more episode segments of Nashville Public Television’s Tennessee Crossroads.
