Guthrie's work is in collections throughout the United States, including the Boise Art Museum, and the Paris Gibson Square Museum of Art, Plemmons Collection of Contemporary Art, (Boone, North Carolina), and the Leigh Lane Edwards Collection of Contemporary Art, (Appalachian State University). Tim Guthrie gave a TEDxOmaha talk in October 2018 about An Artist's Journey Through Love and Loss.[1] The talk focused on the death of his wife in 2015, and his grieving process, as well as the mini-documentary he created about her, called Missing Piece, which won numerous national and International awards. The works were also featured on the cover and in an article of Omaha Magazine.[2]

He won a Top 25 MFA Sculptors in the Nation award from the International Sculpture Center and Sculpture Magazine, and worked on the Lied Jungle at Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo, and he references both in a Creative Mornings talk where, among many projects, he also discusses working on the Lost City in Africa.[3]

Guthrie also collaborated with Olsen on an experimental animation called "The Nature of the Creative Process", which was featured at &Now.[6]
