Welcome to the Website of Tryon Painters and Sculptors

We are a non-profit community arts organization that encourages self-expression through visual arts.


  • We believe that art is an essential part of any thriving community.

  • We believe that arts lift the spirit and raise the collective consciousness of the citizens of Tryon. We collaborate with artists and artistic organizations in an effort to facilitate mutual support, recognition, and the exchanging of ideas.

  • We work to encourage a thriving community of artists and appreciation of art within Polk County. We facilitate classes, lectures, performances, and exhibits in an effort to enrich the lives of all citizens of Tryon. TPS strives to unleash the artistic potential of every community member.
