Wall Art Gallery
SCA is an artist-for-artists group formed in 2010 in response to a severe decline in exhibit and sales opportunities for visual artists, due to the closing of nationwide and local art galleries and festivals. Once established organizers created a space for emerging to established artists, providing unique hands-on instruction, with the ability to exhibit their work at locally owned businesses.
A member driven not-for-profit organization, SCA provide members with opportunities to build multiple skills; from public relations, networking, professional exhibits, portfolio management, presentation and much more. Artists members helped grow the group to manage multiple locations in which artists may show their work in professional setting. Businesses are able to form a bond with the community by hosting exhibits and events.
Through the South Carolina Artists group, members are able to work together, provide emotional support, encouragement, understand proper exhibiting techniques and promote awareness of art appreciation.

About
21st Century Artists Community!
Our mission is to provide both amateur and professional artists an opportunity to learn the art of professional display and the ability to show their work. Exhibits, events and more are coordinated for every member the ability to show their works of art. When you are a part of an artists community you are no longer alone.
We do not sell or share membership information. Artists information on Membership forms is maintained for active members only. We have and will always support all our artist members and their work.
As an artists-for-artists group, we are dedicated to providing public exhibits, professional support and ongoing inspiration for the community as a whole. As artists we understand art must be exhibited to truly be appreciated. Our mission is to visually enrich and strengthen the community by promoting the exhibition of local, professional art in work spaces and general public areas.
