Serious arts. Right here in Cherokee County.
June 2026 Exhibit

This June at the Center Gallery: sculptor Kyle Cottier. Building pieces from thousands of small wooden parts, joined by hand into vessels and suspended nets, Kyle’s work comes out of basketry and woodworking traditions, and it is worth seeing up close.
Art and community.
The Cherokee County Arts Council has been a presence in Cherokee County since 2011. We run monthly gallery exhibitions, educational field trips for local students, hands-on workshops, and a performance series that brings nationally and internationally recognized artists to the region. Our Open Studios program hosts a collective of working artists who maintain studio space at our facility and sell their work directly to the public - for most of them, this is the only dedicated space of its kind in the county.
