About

The Charleston Artist Guild is a non profit organization.

Story

Visit our gallery at 160 East Bay Street featuring more than 70 artists & photographers! We are open 7 days a week, 11-6pm

The Charleston Artist Guild is dedicated to serving the Arts Community of Charleston providing education in all aspects of the art world: workshops for the practicing artist or photographer, lectures for the burgeoning collector, and community outreach to serve the needs of the greater society through art.

The Guild holds monthly meetings that are open to the public at no cost September through May in which accomplished artists and experts make presentations and give demonstrations in many subjects and mediums.

The Charleston Artist Guild Gallery provides space for our exhibiting artists a permanent place to show and sell their work as well as hosting the Guild's Annual Members' Exhibition. Our annual Signature Show and annual Holiday Show are juried exhibitions open to all artists in South Carolina. The Guild's Spring and Fall sidewalk shows are the longest running arts events of their kind in Charleston. We also work closely with the City of Charleston Office of Cultural Affairs in sponsoring the Piccolo Spoleto Juried Exhibition. The shows display over 100 pieces of artwork each and are seen by thousands of residents and visitors to Charleston.

In addition to encouraging our member artists with workshops, programs of instruction, and opportunities to show their work, we reach out to the community to help less fortunate and younger artists in the Tri-county area. The Guild has several on-going community projects:

The Art of Alzheimer's for elderly artists in nursing homes.

The High School Artistic Merit Awards Competition.

The Extraordinary Arts Competition for special education students.

Piccolo Spoleto Juried Indoor Art Exhibition

Pattison's Academy Summer School Art

Love this Gallery. They have over 70 different artist hanging with many various types of 2D art. Lots of beautiful works to choose from. They also offer packaging and shipping so if you are traveling there is no need to worry about how to safely transport your art work home. They will take care of everything for you, AND the best part, a portion of their sales goes back to a few local charities. This Charleston art gallery is a 501c non-profit organization and the hub for the local Charleston Artist Guild, which has more than 700 members.

What a fantastic gallery! My husband and I are from Scotland and are enjoying touring the southern states. Yesterday we had the pleasure of visiting the gallery of the Charleston Artist Guild. Not only was it a fabulous exhibition of paintings and works of art but the two ladies who welcomed us could not have been more helpful. Marcia in particular was just an angel and went way above and beyond the call of duty by taking us in her car to meet our friends when the heavens opened and the streets became like rivers. Words don't seem enough but you so much. You don't know how grateful we were. X
