OZ Arts Nashville
OZ Arts supports the creation, development and presentation of significant performing and visual art works by leading artists whose contribution influences the advancement of their field.
Housed in a renovated, former cigar warehouse in Nashville, TN, OZ Arts’ modern, flexible performance and installation space enables leading artists across disciplines to present Brave New Art in a nontraditional context. The Ozgener family established OZ Arts Nashville in 2013 as a gift back to the city and country that have been so hospitable to them as first-generation, Turkish-Armenian immigrants. Nashville residents since 1968, the Ozgener family are internationally recognized for innovation in their entrepreneurial endeavors. Having built one of the world’s foremost cigar companies, CAO Cigars, the Ozgeners brought unprecedented artistry to cigars and, previously, humidors and Meerschaum pipes. After selling the company, the family converted their former headquarters into a nonprofit cultural center for contemporary art, performances, and events.
