Annie is the best shot around, and she manages to support her little brother and sisters by selling the game she hunts. When she's discovered by Buffalo Bill Cody, he persuades her to join his Wild West Show. It only takes one glance for her to fall head over heals for dashing shooting ace Frank Butler as the main attraction, which while good for business, is bad for romance. Or is it?

Mauldin Cultural Center: Tom Fisch June 21, 2013
June 21
In 1991, Tom moved to Nashville, TN to further his songwriting career. He formed his own publishing company and his songs have been recorded by a number of artists, including the Oak Ridge Boys and Swiss country singer Erica Arnold. Tom continues to pitch his songs to other artists but his main focus now lies in his own career as a performer. In 2004, Tom relocated to Western North Carolina (Flat Rock, NC) and it’s thriving acoustic music scene. With the backdrop of the Blue Ridge Mountains for inspiration, Tom and his music have found a comfortable place to call home. And wherever he performs, audiences continue to connect with the warm, appealing style, diverse range of material, and talent this seasoned performer brings to the stage."

Centre Stage: Next to Normal July 11-27, 2013
Next to Normal
A Feel - Everything, Musical!
Next to Normal is a rock musical with book and lyrics by Brian Yorkey and music by Tom Kitt. Its story concerns a mother who struggles with worsening bipolar disorder and the effect that her illness has on her family. The musical also addresses such issues as grieving a loss, suicide, drug abuse, ethics in modern psychiatry, and suburban life.
This show makes a direct grab for the heart — or wrings it out thoroughly. This brave, breathtaking musical, focuses squarely on the pain that cripples the members of a suburban family, and never for a minute does it let you escape the anguish at the core of their lives.
“Next to Normal” does not, in other words, qualify as your standard feel-good musical. Instead this portrait of a manic-depressive mother and the people she loves and damages is something much more: a feel-everything musical, which asks you to discover the liberation in knowing where it hurts.

Mauldin Cultural Center: West End String Band August 16, 2013
August 16 at 7:30pm
The West End String Band is an exciting new combination of musicians dedicated to playing and performing traditional bluegrass music with modern appeal. Charlie McDaniel, guitar and vocals, moved to the upstate area about 20 years ago from Rutherford County, N.C. After moving to Greenville, Charlie met his wife- to-be Kathy. She grew up singing American traditional songs with her father in Northwestern Ohio. As a percussionist in high school, she won the Louis Armstrong Jazz Award for piano. After going to bluegrass jams and shows with Charlie, she decided to take up a new instrument. Her great timing and true love for the music made the bass a great choice for her. She anchors the group now with her rock solid timing and harmony vocals. Jim, a Clemson graduate, hails from the DC area, and currently lives in Simpsonville, SC. His style, though steeped in traditional bluegrass, is versatile and creative. Jim’s voice will pull your heartstrings. Matt Purinton, of Six Mile, SC, adds his unique mandolin and deep rich baritone to the West End String Band sound.

Riverworks Gallery: Shane Howell October 26-December 02, 2012
Shane Howell’s NOT FOR PRINT conjures the mystery of monsters, kites, watermelon seeds and little brothers. The poems/sculptures reveal observations Shane has held dear and secret as he grew from boy child to man but never revealed until he became a father. His NOT FOR PRINT are all now printed lovingly by the hand of a graphic artist and illustrated with the sculptor’s eye for found and created objects. His poem/sculptures are influenced by the magic that Shel Silverstein instills in children and adults alike. They resonate from his personal metamorphosis as he experiences the everyday through the eyes of his sons and remembers his own early observations. Escape your grownup everyday and visit NOT FOR PRINT to bask in the warmth and smile at the magic.

Mayim Water: a film by Elizabth Stehling November 18, 2012
You are invited to attend the debut screening of Mayim/Water on Sunday, November 18th, 2012 from 2:30 to 5 pm at the Hughes Main Library Downtown, Greenville, South Carolina. I will give a short artist talk at 3 pm that includes describing the production process and addressing video as a visual art form. Guests are welcome to drop in anytime
Mayim/Water provides a glimpse into local character, dance and multiculturalism. Mayim, the Hebrew word for waters, is also the name for a popular dance step known in the USA as the Grapevine. I aim to frame multiple meanings of mayim as the film participants flow back and forth between confusion, recognition, and rejuvenation.

Pickens County Museum: Philip Gott December 03-February 07, 2012
Philip Gott: Explorations in Color
Having grown up in the swamps of South Florida, Philip Gott showed great promise early, garnering attention from stunned relatives and child psychologists alike for refusing to color within the lines. Soon, though, Philip became more concerned with bikinis and water skis and really had very little exposure to fine art until he began his architectural studies in Paris. It was in the City of Light where he was seduced by the magic of the creative impulse and decided to dedicate his life to the suffering requisite to the life of an artist. From watching his uncle Max working feverishly in his atelier in Paris whenever he could steal the time, Philip tasted the all consuming passion and realized he had to find that passion of his own. By painting alongside artist Glenna Finch, meeting her friends Syd Solomon and Conrad Marca-Relli and learning some of their techniques, Philip first grasped the commitment and dedication to the process of expression that consumed the professional artist.

Pickens County Museum: Writing: Putting Pen to Paper December 03-February 07, 2012
The “Writing: Putting Pen to Paper” exhibit will start with elegant documents showing a time when writing was regarded as an art form. Pages are decorated with illumination, scrolling calligraphy, and interspersed and surrounded with vibrant embellishments. The exhibit moves on into colonial times. Those who could write did so with the care and flair of an artist. Beautiful poems, bible verses, letters, journals, and even business ledgers remain as testaments to the art form of writing.

CMA: Anxious Visions: The Art of Michael Northius January 18-April 07, 2013
Featuring paintings and drawings by Michael Northius, a prominent Southeastern artist, this Gallery 15 exhibition takes a wry look at the psychological conditions of contemporary life. Northius finds inspiration from old master painters and uses a nearly surrealistic and highly accomplished style to present his quirky visions of life. His work is entertaining, sensuous and disturbing when contemplated for any length of time. It is the kind of artwork that initially shocks, amuses or pleases, but its lasting impression is to ponder how offbeat the "normal" reality around us can be.

CMA: Impressionism from Monet to Matisse January 25-April 21, 2013
The Columbia Museum of Art showcases 55 masterworks from the Dixon Gallery and Gardens. Paintings by the well-known leaders of French Impressionism including Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Camille Pissarro and Alfred Sisley, and paintings by America's most noted Impressionist painters; Mary Cassatt and John Singer Sargent, are featured in this exhibition. Major modern paintings by Paul Cézanne, Paul Gauguin and Georges Braque are on display next to the Impressionists. "The Dixon's French Impressionist paintings are utterly beautiful but they are also works of considerable historical significance," Dixon Gallery and Gardens Director Kevin Sharp said. "Some of these paintings were first seen in the original Impressionist shows of the 1870s and 1880s in Paris. These remarkable paintings speak eloquently to a fascinating age and the triumph of modern art in Europe." The exhibition is presented through the generosity of BB&T.

Artists Guild Gallery: Guest Artist Ulla Scheafer February 01-28, 2013
February 1 - 28
Reception with the artist: First Friday, February 1st, 6 p.m.-9 p.m.
“Trees – Coast and Rock”
About the Artist:
There is no day without photography, taking photographs, browsing, editing, and printing them – to Ulla Schaefer life presents itself as a sequence of still images.
Images of untouched landscapes as well as selected details have always been central to Ulla’s photography. Her German background and the country’s dense population led her to appreciate the vastness of American nature. Coming from B&W photography, many of her photographs are either completely devoid of colors or the colors are often subdued. The adjustments in the landscapes are subtle to keep the natural appearance - different from the pictures of rundown houses, another of Ulla’s themes, that she grew fascinated with when visiting old cities in Germany’s East and in Poland.
About the Exhibition:
“Trees - Coast and Rock” is a selection of photographs that puts an emphasis on trees, standing solitary, in alleys, or on the coast exposed to the sea. Like the images of land-, seascapes, and rocks, the motifs were found in the Northwest and Southeast of the United States as well as in the Northeast of Germany.

Greer Children's Theatre: Grease February 15-24, 2013
Grease: The School Version
Performance dates are:
Feb 15-16 & 22-23 at 7pm
Feb 17-24 at 2pm
Performances are held at the J Harley Bond’s Career Center at 505 North Main St. Greer, SC 29650
Ticket prices: $15 adults, $12 students/seniors, $7 for children under 5
Here is Rydell High's senior class of 1959: duck-tailed, hot-rodding "Burger Palace Boys" and their gum-snapping, hip-shaking "Pink Ladies" in bobby sox and pedal pushers, evoking the look and sound of the 1950s in this rollicking musical. Head "greaser" Danny Zuko and new (good) girl Sandy Dumbrowski try to relive the high romance of their "Summer Nights" as the rest of the gang sings and dances its way through such songs as "Greased Lightnin”!
Grease: The School Version
is presented by special arrangement with SAMUEL FRENCH, INC.
Book, Music, and Lyrics by JIM JACOBS and WARREN CASEY
The school version removes all profanity, lewd behavior, and Rizzo's Pregnancy scare. Since Rizzo's pregnancy scare is removed, the song "There Are Worst Things I Could Do" is also removed from this edition.
Groups who perform for young audiences or produce musicals with young actors now have an ideal version of Grease for their needs. Shorter and more suitable in content for teens and subteens, this abridged version retains the fun-loving spirit and immortal songs that make Grease a favorite among rock and roll fans of all ages.

Mauldin Cultural Center: James Gregory February 28, 2013
Gregory’s success, like his comedy, is the direct result of the values he grew up with. And now, twenty something years later, it is this unique brand of humor that packs the crowds into his sold-out shows. The absence of vulgarity sets James apart and his stories are carefully crafted art. “I have lived long enough to know people, know life”, Gregory reflects. “My comedy is based on my life experiences. It’s real, it’s funny and the audience loves it. That’s why I’m still in business.”

Is Spider getting too big for his own skin? Will Fly find her superhero powers in time to save her Aunt Rita from peril? Will Worm learn to stand on his own two feet…even though he doesn’t have feet? We invite you to take a look at the world from a bug’s perspective. Perhaps you’ll see that their lives are not all that different from yours. This musical (rap, hip-hop, ballads and boogie-woogie) captures all of the droll humor and whimsy of the wildly popular books.

Join us for an evening of food, fun, and art! Taste the great local flavors of Tablefields Market Kitchen and meet the artists that are featured in the restaurants' décor.
Meet the Artists of Artists Guild Gallery of Greenville:
Gerda Bowman - enjoys the challenge of capturing a likeness and the details of a subject that make it uniquely "it". She finds that graphite pencils and colored pencils are the mediums that provide the control to obtain those details. Watercolors and pastels combine beautifully with pencils to provide added depth and interesting backgrounds to chosen subjects.
Kathy DuBose - has explored various mediums to include watercolors, acrylics and oil. Inspiration for her subject matter comes from her love of the outdoors and traveling with her family. Kathy's special gift for detail can be found in landscapes, street scenes, and various wildlife. Kathy lives in Easley, South Carolina with her husband of twenty-two years and their three children.
Kevin Henderson - attempts to break down the essence of a feeling or tell a story through visual movement and balance. In doing this he reveals a new perspective, one that the eye or camera cannot see. Kevin began painting realistically and gradually moved into a form of surrealism, feeling that between reality and imagination there is another domain waiting to be explored, this is what his art reflects in its simplicity and complexity. His wish is to convey this alternative to the viewer.
David Waldrop - took up photography initially as a hobby to help manage stress related to his work. However, soon after David discovered that photography was "in my blood" and he has been hooked and photography has become a passion. Mostly, David enjoys taking images of nature as well as images that emphasize texture and patterns in nature and man-made objects.

Artisphere: Demo Tents May 11-12, 2013
The local artists in Demo Tents on the Main Street Bridge are Tom Zumbach and Michael McDunn in the woodworking tent, Ryan Calloway/metalworking tent, Art Departments from Clemson and Furman University.
The DIY Stage is pretty much all local artists…
Deb Potter, Felting Demo: Deb Potter’s journey into fiber arts began nearly 15 years ago when she moved to the Upstate & acquired sheep. It seemed appropriate to learn to deal with their beautiful wool. Deb’s husband learned to shear & Deb learned to love every aspect of dealing with raw fiber. Most of Deb’s training came from her own research and experimentation with cleaning, dyeing, spinning, weaving & felting. Deb’s farm now includes angora goats for mohair as well as llamas & angora rabbits. She has even raised silkworms & spun hair from a lion.
Bridget Fox, Ceramics Demo: Bridget Fox received a BFA in Ceramics from the University of Georgia in 1996. Originally a painting major, she enrolled in a ceramics course and has been working as a ceramic artist ever since. Over the years her work has progressed from simple, primitive pit-fired forms to complex, elegant and exotic vessels. Bridget recently moved from Macon, GA and began a 3 year clay studio residency at the Energy XChange in Burnsville, NC.
Teresa Pietsch: Teresa Pietsch is a potter in Western NC, currently a resident at the EnergyXChange. She came to pottery through community studios, workshops, and working as a studio assistant. In her current work, Teresa is experimenting with textures and decorative aspects of pottery. Much of her inspiration comes from nature and ideas that are centered around life.
Teri Goddard, Weaving: Teri Goddard hand weaves apparel and accessories using natural fiber yarns like rayon, cotton, linen, and bamboo. Using glossy weft yarns in a floating pattern, as well as a blended shimmer of the soft colors of Monet's pallet, Teri has tried to capture something of his approach to texture and color. She is also inspired by Japanese kimonos, ethnic clothing and nature.
Jim Gorman, Monoprinting: For Jim Gorman, the creation of art is a process of discovery. A ceramic artist, photographer, printmaker, jewelry maker, and painter, Gorman began his career in graphic design, but quickly discovered it wasn’t the perfect fit. After active duty in the Air Force, he found his essence in silversmithing and, then, ceramics, which he created, exhibited, and taught for more than 30 years.
Charles Pate, Jr, From Brains to Bronze: Charles Pate, Jr. is an award winning painter and sculptor from Greenville. Charles graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design in the spring of 2008 and now shares a studio and gallery with his father, Charlie.
David Gerhard, Smartphone Art/Kitchen Printmaking: Gerhard is currently an M.F.A. candidate in Visual Art, Printmaking Emphasis at Clemson University and received a B.A. in Communications and Studio Art from Sonoma State University in Rohnert Park, California in December of 2008. Recently awarded a Professional Enrichment Grant from Clemson University, Graduated with Distinction from Sonoma State University and named a Sonoma State Mover and Shaker.
Katie Poterala, Pewter Casting/Torch Fired Enameling: Katie Poterala received an MFA from Arizona State University after earning her BFA from Winthrop University. In addition to her studio practice, she has taught metalsmithing and 3D design classes at Arizona State University and Winthrop University. She is currently a metals instructor at Tryon Arts and Crafts in Tryon, NC, and has taught various metals workshops and classes in the southeast. She is an active member, attendee, and volunteer at national conferences, and has held positions in both Arizona Designer Craftsmen and the Society of North American Goldsmiths. Katie’s work has been shown in numerous juried and invitational exhibitions, most recently at Velvet Da Vinci Gallery, J Cotter Gallery, Mesa Arts Center, and the Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport Museum. She has been the recipient of numerous awards and is represented by galleries and shops throughout the country. Her work was recently published in the Lark book Showcase: 500 Rings, and will be featured in the upcoming Lark book Showcase: 500 Art Necklaces.
Lily Wikoff, Clay Jewelry: Lily Wikoff, the owner and designer behind Lily Pottery, has created a niche of urban-gritty originality. Her distinctive, hand-crafted jewelry and home designs have landed in trendy boutiques and retailers throughout the world.
Teresa Roche, Art & Light Gallery: Teresa Roche is a Greenville Native who studied Dance Arts at Columbia College. She has always had a natural affinity and love of art, beauty and creativity. Teresa opened Art & Light in 2007 and has over 30 years of experience in marketing, production and presentation.

Chautauqua: Malcolm X May 14, 2013
Furman University Religion professor Roger Sneed brings the legacy of Malcolm X up for discussion. Who was this ghetto hustler turned human rights activist? - Black nationalist? Freedom fighter? Firebrand? Racist? Demagogue? Religious zealot? And why does the Malcolm X legend resound so deep within African American culture, influencing black political discourse, cultural criticism and religious thought?
Dr. Sneed joined the Furman faculty in 2007 and holds a Phd from Vanderbilt University, a M.Div. from Emory University and BA/MA from University of Tulsa. He has teaches a course on Malcolm X at Furman University.

Mauldin Cultural Center: Mac Arnold & Plate Full O' Blues May 17, 2013
Mac Arnold must have known at an early age that his music career would read like a “Who’s who” of Blues/R&B Legends. His high school band “J Floyd & The Shamrocks” were often joined by none other than Macon, Georgia native, James Brown on piano. After deciding to pursue a professional music career, he joined the Charles Miller group until 1965 when he made the move to Chicago to work with recording artist/saxophonist A. C. Reed.
In late 1966, at age 24, came the opportunity of a lifetime to join the Muddy Waters Band and help shape the electric blues sound that inspired the rock and roll movement of the late 60’s and early 70’s. Regular guests of the band included Eric Clapton, Paul Butterfield, Mike Bloomfield, and Elvin Bishop. The Muddy Waters Band (as a unit) shared the stage with the likes of Howlin’ Wolfe, Elmore James, Jimmy Reed, Junior Wells, Big Joe Williams, and Big Mama Thornton just to name a few. During this time, Mac played on John Lee Hooker’s “live “album, Live at the Café Au Go-Go, as well as Otis Spann’s classic recording “The Blues is Where It’s At”.
Cost: Name Your Own Price (donation)
Tickets can be ordered online, over the phone (864) 335-4862 or in person [101 East Butler Road]
