Once again, the Artists’ Guild of Spartanburg seeks to highlight the work of outstanding BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) artists in the southeastern region through their upcoming juried exhibition, WOVEN.

 

Artists working in all mediums are invited to apply.

 

Woven is an exhibition that will highlight works of creatives such as quilters, weavers and visual artists from the southeast region. This exhibition seeks to celebrate and commemorate the visual storytelling and traditions in conversation with the African Diaspora. Through this presentation of visual storytelling and craft-based works we seek to broaden intergenerational narratives of BIPOC experiences and creative practices.

 

Accepted works will be exhibited in the Artists' Guild gallery, located within the Chapman Cultural Center in Spartanburg, SC from June 7th through June 30th. This first-floor gallery space receives high foot traffic and is open to the public Tues-Sat. An artists' reception will be held on June 17th to celebrate all participating artists and announce prize-winning work.
