You may have been driving along on I40 recently and noticed billboards advertising Dolly’s specialty plate. The Dollywood Foundation has implemented a state-wide campaign to promote Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library specialty plate. It serves as a reminder of how vital the specialty license plate program is to various nonprofits and charities across the state, as well as the arts.
Did you know that approximately 80% of the Tennessee Arts Commission grants come from the sale of specialty license plates? A portion of many of the specialty plates and personalized plates benefit the arts. When you get your license plate renewal postcard in the mail, please consider getting a specialty plate or, better yet, a personalized specialty plate when renewing your license plate.
Select a specialty plate to promote a cause close to your heart, or choose one to match the color of your vehicle. Whatever your reason, it'll show your fellow Tennessee motorists that you support a good cause as well as the arts and culture in Tennessee by getting a specialty plate. Dolly does.
