The Art Market is exactly what its title says. Local artists come from the surrounding areas to display their work. See some truly compelling pieces ranging from the contemporary to the traditional that include expressions in every medium. There's art rendered in watercolors, photography, basketry, ceramics and woodcuts, among many others. This is a great place to find a unique gift item, support local artists and celebrate their talents.

Fountain Lanes Strike and Spare Family Bowling is a great place to get the family together and enjoy some fun in a very impressive entertainment facility. Get your game on when you let the ball roll down one of the 36 synthetic lanes. A digital scoring system, lots of choices at the full-service grill and a great drink menu all ensure that you'll enjoy every one of your frames! There's also an impressively-stocked pro shop and an arcade for the kids, too!

Knoxville had the honor of hosting the World's Fair in 1982. One of the most obvious reminders of that momentous event is the fact that the Sunsphere was built to complement the event and it still stands today as a great way for tourists to get a bird's eye view of the city. Visit the various levels and enjoy views of downtown, the University of Tennessee and the mountains in the distance. It's a truly breathtaking experience. Other attractions include The Candy Factory, a group of Victorian homes that house shops selling arts and crafts, and Fort Kid that is a playground featuring historically-themed rides and play areas. The celebration of the World's Fair clearly still echoes at this fun, family-friendly attraction in Knoxville.
