Hello Artists!
Thanks for taking time to learn more about Up. Below you will find some basic information regarding our space — we have also answered commonly asked questions in the FAQ section of our website, galleryup.com.
Up is an artist-run gallery, store and custom frame shop. We present contemporary arts and crafts that are accessible, aff ordable and eclectic. Located on the 2nd floor of the Gettys Art Center at 201 E Main St in Rock Hill, SC, our space is free and open to the public Monday–Friday, 10 am to 6 pm and Saturday 11 am to 4 pm. We are also open during gallery crawls and special events.
Gallery & Store
Our 540 s.f. gallery space presents over a half dozen shows annually and we are proud to provide emerging and established artists the opportunity to exhibit and sell their work in a professional manner. If you have any questions regarding exhibiting, contact our Gallery Director, Chris Lange, at (803) 980 5355 or chris@galleryup.com.
In October of 2007 we opened an adjacent 600 s.f. retail store and frame shop and launched galleryup.com. The addition of the store and website has allowed us to branch out into related modes of arts and crafts, both decorative and functional, such as clothing, accessories, jewelry, home decor, etc. We select most of the work for our store on a consignment basis. Artists that sell their work in our physical store location also benefit from additional exposure on our ecommerce site which enables us to market to a global audience. For inquiries regarding selling in our shop, contact our Retail Manager, Ashley Herron, at (803) 980 5355 or ashley@galleryup.com.
Custom Framing
Up also provides custom conservation framing using only the finest quality archival materials at competitive prices with a quick turnaround. We are pleased to extend a 15% discount on framing orders to current Up artists. Contact our Framing Manager, Jessica Johnson, at (803) 980 5355 or jess@galleryup.com for details.
If you feel that your work is aligned with the energy and vision of Up we encourage you to submit samples along with the attached forms. We look forward to hearing from you!
