At the Greenville Center for Creative Arts, we make creativity accessible through classes, camps, and community programs. Guided by our "Create & Connect" philosophy, we foster inspiration, collaboration, and lifelong learning for all.
Access Art from All Angles
At Greenville Center for Creative Arts, creativity isn’t confined to canvas or clay. It lives in the stories we share, the connections we build, and the communities we inspire.
Our Vision
Our community is committed to finding common ground through creativity, while always celebrating and supporting the artist.
Our Mission
Connect artists from all backgrounds, and at all stages, to the high-quality resources, community, and opportunities they need to feel emboldened when sharing their stories and growing their talents.
