SUMMARY:Craft-itarianism: Community Action Through Craft
DESCRIPTION:The word craft-itarianism was coined by 2026 Center for Craft Curatorial Fellow Alyssa Velazquez to name artistic projects that generate employment\, raise awareness\, or offer therapeutic support through craft. These programs provide a space where people affected by addiction\, incarceration\, and gun violence can find solidarity while learning a skill. \nCraft-itarianism: Community Action Through Craft celebrates nonprofits and artists who believe in—and actively practice—the power of craft to support and empower individuals and communities.  \nThis exhibition was curated by 2026 Center for Craft Curatorial Fellow Alyssa Velazquez. Launched in 2017\, the Curatorial Fellowship supports emerging curators exploring new ideas about craft with mentorship\, professional development\, and a $5\,000 honorarium to realize an exhibition. \nOn view February 27\, 2026–September 27\, 2026

SUMMARY:The Odd Couple - Flat Rock Playhouse - 8/28-9/19
DESCRIPTION:Pour a drink and duck for cover — domestic bliss is about to get messy. \nMeet Felix: impeccably pressed\, emotionally distressed\, and suddenly single. Meet Oscar: charmingly rumpled\, habitually late\, and blissfully allergic to coasters. When Felix moves in with his old pal Oscar after a marital meltdown\, neatness meets nonsense\, and the sparks fly. \nAshtrays overflow\, tempers flare\, and laughter fills the living room in Neil Simon’s effervescent comedy of friendship\, forgiveness\, and the fine art of driving each other crazy.  \nThe Odd Couple is a classic cocktail of chaos and charm. Proof that opposites attract… so long as they don’t share a kitchen. \nEvent Times: 2:00 PM & 7:30 PM

SUMMARY:GUIDED OPEN STUDIO - SEPTEMBER EDITION - WITH ANNE STRUTZ\, PSA\, IAPS-MC
DESCRIPTION:Wednesdays from 10-3\nSeptember 2\, 9\, 16\, 23 \nJoin Anne in the studio for an open-format pastel class designed to deepen your skills in this richly expressive medium. Each session begins with a guided morning exercise exploring essential artistic principles and techniques that bring depth\, energy\, and confidence to your work. Bring your own reference materials to create a personalized studio experience. Pastels\, paper\, and sketching and underpainting supplies are provided\, with premium sanded paper available for purchase. You’re also welcome to bring your own pastels and discover which colors will best complement and expand your palette. \nClass size limited to 6 \nARTIST BIO: \nAnne Strutz\, PSA\, IAPS-MC\, is an artist in motion\, pushing boundaries by infusing movement and energy into her paintings. For Anne painting begins with what you cannot see. She poses questions to herself before starting a painting. What is drawing me to this subject? What is the story I want to tell? What am I trying to express in each painting? No single mark is precious. No fear is allowed to enter the process behind the easel. All elements of the composition must work in unity. This process is critical for infusing energy into my work and allows me to respond directly to the piece as it evolves. \nAnne’s journey as an artist has been a fulfilling adventure\, leading her from fashion and textile designer in NYC\, to teaching and developing art curricula for children in Philadelphia and Chicago. In 2013 Anne turned her focus to fine art. After viewing a pastel exhibition at the Noyse Museum of Art in Hammonton N.J. Anne began her journey with the pastel medium. The tangible aspects of the medium\, with the ability to draw\, paint\, layer\, and combine with other mediums has led her on an energetic journey pushing the qualities of pastel in her work. Anne’s work has been featured in the Pastel Journal multiple times\, Pratique Des Arts and Strokes of Genius and the 2022 and 2024 IAPS Souvenir Book. She has also written multiple articles for the Pastel Journal and Artist Magazine. \nAnne is the past president and workshop chair of the Piedmont Pastel Society. In 2019 she participated in the Dueling Demonstration event at the International Association of Pastel Societies convention which occurs every two years. In 2022 and 2024 Anne was invited back to be one of the faculty artists to demonstrate her techniques at the convention. Anne holds a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design and currently lives in Pickens\, South Carolina.

SUMMARY:Meltt w/ Los Eclipses
DESCRIPTION:STANDING ROOM ONLY \nMELTT\nMeltt’s upcoming third album is the culmination of everything the Vancouver indie-pop quartet have accomplished so far\, all the while pushing their sound in new and exciting directions. True to its title\, Pathways finds Chris Smith [lead vocals\, guitar\, bass\, keys]\, Jamie Turner [drums\, percussion]\, James Porter [guitar\, keys\, bass\, vocals]\, and Ian Winkler [bass\, keys\, guitar] at multiple forks in the road and deciding to take all of them\, submerging their sound in new rippling textures while still retaining the warm\, textured glow that their music’s contained since their debut EP Visions in 2017. \nThematically\, Pathways approaches what Winkler refers to as “four men approaching their 30s and figuring out their paths and lives.” Big topics abound\, from relationships and the aftermath of loss to the strange and uneasy feeling that accompanies navigating the modern world at large. “Our tone is usually pretty optimistic and hopeful\, but this time we let some darkness in\,” Porter says. “There are so many things we experience individually\, but when we get in the studio\, it’s clear that we’re on a journey together.” \nWhether you’ve been with them since the beginning or are joining them at this very juncture\, Pathways will make you thankful that you’re along for the journey. \nLOS ECLPISES \nLos Eclipses is a Franco-Mexican duo composed by French singer Eva de Marce and Mexican producer Dan Solo. \nThe frenetic combination of styles between its members creates a sonic layer full of contrasting nuances: from light to darkness\, from melancholy to euphoria\, from calm to celebration. Dan’s extensive production experience\, along with Eva’s enigmatic and captivating voice\, blend together to create a project that has quickly captured the attention of both the public and the media. \nIn just one year since their formation\, Los Eclipses have performed more than 50 shows in 10 countries\, gracing the stages of renowned festivals and venues such as El Palacio de los Deportes (MX)\, Francos de Montréal (CAN)\, Razzmatazz (ES)\, Viva Pomona & SXSW (USA)\, Festival Trópico (MX) among others. They have shared the stage with renowned artists such as Empire of the Sun\, Underworld\, Royskopp\, Moodymann\, Buscabulla and The Whitest Boy Alive\, to name a few. \nIn 2024\, Los Eclipses reached a major milestone with the release of their debut album\, Eden Sauvage. Deeply inspired by the myth of Adam and Eve\, the album fuses electronic and dreamlike tones\, exploring the dualities that define the duo through hypnotic melodies and lyrics filled with mystery. With Eden Sauvage\, Los Eclipses have established themselves as one of the most exciting and unique revelations in the contemporary electro-pop scene.
