Art is busting out all over town

Move over Sweet Tea, there's a new game in town and a another reason to spend the day in the "ville." I've grouped together some new and existing art venues into what I'm calling ArtLoop Summerville, and although it's not walkable the list does connect our ever expanding community in an artful way. 

​1. First stop is Art on the Square in the Nexton community and they are set to open Friday, November 22. The gallery will represent over 30 artists offering painting, photography, sculpture, pottery, jewelry, stained glass and mosaics. This new space in Nexton Square is easily accessible with free parking and is located next to shopping and dining!

2. Jump on North Main Street in the direction of downtown Summerville and drop by Coastal Coffee Roasters. They are all about community and above the "community table" is the Everything Happens for a Reason art space where experienced and emerging artists display their work on a short term basis. Chat with the people at the next table as you take in the artful view and enjoy the coffee, tea, beer and wine, or any of the hunger taming items on the menu. 

3. Continue on North Main Street and park at Hutchinson Square to visit the new East Winds Gallery within the retail space, East Winds. The works of five artists are on display along with jewelry and clothing. They just had their opening so give them a call to learn more. 843-875-8985 / 134 S Main St, Summerville, SC 29483

4. Around the corner on West Richardson is Public Works Art Center where renovation is underway to provide art education and studio work space in the center of town. It's the first of its kind in Summerville and has been setting up outdoors during Third Thursdays until the space is ready to go.

your sister Sue,
