Series & Programs

Storyline Series

This season, ArtsUp SC invites you to experience storytelling through every artistic lens. Our Storyline Series draws inspiration from the enduring words of To Kill a Mockingbird, weaving together performances that speak to justice, empathy, identity, and the heart of human connection. Join us for a journey of art, conversation, and community.

Creative Flow

A Monthly Meetup for Visual Artists & Writers

Join ArtsUp on the fourth Thursday of each month for Creative Flow—a relaxed, inspiring space where visual artists and writers can create, connect, and share their work. Whether you’re starting something new or developing an ongoing project, this is your time to dive in alongside a community of fellow creatives.

Each month features a new theme or prompt to spark fresh ideas and encourage creative exploration. You’ll have the opportunity to meet other local artists and writers, exchange feedback, and stay connected to the Upstate’s dynamic arts scene.

ArtsUp provides tables, chairs, and light refreshments. Please bring your own supplies and plenty of creative energy.

Gallery Series

Visual Art Exhibitions at Ridge Gallery

Experience the creative pulse of the Upstate through ArtsUp’s Gallery Series—rotating exhibitions that highlight the work of local and regional visual artists at Ridge Gallery. From solo shows to themed group exhibitions, the series invites viewers to engage with a wide range of artistic voices and mediums in an intimate gallery setting.

Each show runs for several weeks and features an opening reception where the public can meet the artists, explore the work, and celebrate the arts community. Whether you’re discovering emerging talent or revisiting a favorite local artist, the Gallery Series offers something new with every visit.
