Small art gallery in West Village showcasing emerging artists
We are a small gallery located in the arts district of Greenville that is open daily M-F from 9-5 (or sometimes later). Our goal is to elevate emerging local artists and connect them to both brand-new art collectors and long-time art connoisseurs. We rotate the art every month before the Greenville-wide First Friday Art Crawl. Stop in to see what we have.

We strive to rotate the entire art exhibition every month, so it is always fresh before every First Friday Art Crawl. Plus, we aim to fill the space with emerging artists--not just high-dollar pieces to bring in revenue.

We currently only have the one gallery in the West Village of Greenville.
