Railside Studios is one of Greenville’s most distinctive creative spaces, serving as both a home and a showcase for working artists in the Upstate. Located in Greenville’s arts district near the Swamp Rabbit Trail, Railside Studios provides an inspiring environment where painters, sculptors, photographers, and mixed-media artists can create, collaborate, and share their work with the public. The repurposed industrial building combines Greenville’s historic character with its vibrant arts scene, offering visitors a unique chance to witness creativity in action.
The studios are designed to foster both individual artistic practice and community connection. Each working studio offers artists the space and resources to produce new work while also providing opportunities for visitors to step inside during First Fridays and see art being made.
Railside Studios encourages meaningful interactions between artists and audiences, breaking down the barriers that often separate creators from the community. These events not only showcase the diversity of Greenville’s talent but also help support the local arts economy by giving collectors a chance to purchase original works directly from artists.
Railside Studios also contributes to Greenville’s reputation as a growing arts destination. Its presence within a cluster of galleries and creative businesses helps make the city’s arts district a vibrant and welcoming space for locals and visitors. Whether you are strolling through on a First Friday, looking for a unique work of art, or seeking inspiration in a creative setting, Railside Studios offers an experience that combines accessibility with authenticity.
More than just a collection of studios, Railside is a community built on the belief that art should be shared, celebrated, and connected to everyday life. For Greenville residents and visitors, it represents the spirit of creativity that continues to drive the city’s cultural renaissance
