Arts & Culture Alliance Presents Works by Derrick Freeman at the Emporium Center balcony
The Arts & Culture Alliance will present a new exhibition of artwork by Knoxville artist Derrick Freeman, opening Friday, July 6, at 5:00 PM on the north side of the Balcony at the Emporium Center in Knoxville.

Derrick Freeman is a 21-year old who was diagnosed with autism at age two. At that time, he stopped talking. By the age of three, he began to draw, and it led to his way of commu­nicating with his family. Since that time, he has made outstanding contributions to his community through his gift of art. Derrick's art is and has been an inspiration to many families who have someone with a disability. Each piece of his art has a unique story to tell, and he has proven that regardless of any disability, each of us has something to give back to our community.
