History
The Artists’ Guild of Spartanburg was founded in 1957 by a core of 16 local artists,
in order to support one another in their artistic endeavors. Several charter
members are still active in the Guild. Early in the Guild’s history, members
had to be juried in on the basis of their work. Although juried exhibitions are
still part of who we are, in more recent years, membership has been opened to
artists of many skill levels and to other individuals interested in supporting
the visual arts.
The Guild was incorporated as a non-profit organization in 1960, and became a
funded organization of The Arts Partnership of Greater Spartanburg in 1995.
With membership now open to residents of any county adjacent to Spartanburg County,
the Guild enjoys strong representation in North Carolina, Greenville, and a variety
of other counties.
The Guild’s 50
th anniversary coincided with the opening of the new Chapman Cultural Center in
downtown Spartanburg.
