Established in 2009, renovations and artist sweat equity transformed the former West Main Baptist Church, a nearly forgotten landmark into a showcase of artists for the state to see. The exhibition, workshops, performance, and educational spaces, along with artist’s studios subsist in the creation of something that Spartanburg has never seen, a one-of-a-kind facility that houses like-minded individuals that share a common consciousness.
Our mission is to create a community of artists wherein members mentor and support one another. In addition, our goal is to provide affordable studio, display, and performance spaces to established and emerging artists living in and around Spartanburg, South Carolina. From our inception, we have strived to provide the public with opportunities to view original art and to interact with the artists.
