Busy Weekend in the Hub City

Tonight: ART WALK

Art Walk Spartanburg returns on Thursday, November 20 from 5 to 9 p.m. This will be an opportunity to explore the many art resources downtown. Visitors may look for the trolley signs for assistance in roaming between the Chapman Cultural Center, Spartanburg Art Museum, HUB-BUB's Showroom, Carolina Gallery, Myst Gallery, and Crescent Gallery.

For those who haven’t discovered the newest downtown galleries, Myst Gallery at 154 West Main St. features abstract, surreal and expressive art. Crescent Gallery, exhibiting classical realism, is at 172 E. Main St.

Carolina Gallery continues the exhibition of Guido Migiano paintings that explore the beauty in nature.

Installation artist Janet Orselli has created a site-specific exhibition at 121 West Main St. titled "LocoMotion: A Carriage Migration." A performance component will direct movement from the installation site to other venures in the Art Walk district, culminating at the Spartanburg Art Museum and the Artists Guild Gallery.

On exhibit in the portico of the David Reid Theater at the Chapman Cultural Center, are 4 sculptures that are part of the Brookgreen Gardens Upstate SculpTour. The lobby of the theater will also be open so visitors can see 4 additional sculptures from the SculpTour. The Art Museum is showing the Harold Krisel print collection and the 35th Annual Artists Guild Juried Exhibition.

HUB-BUB will be showing "Garbage - The Revolution Starts at Home", a film in the Green Screen Series, at 7:30.

Several local retail merchants are participating by extending their hours into the evening.
