Since 1978, Upstairs Artspace has exhibited

professionally curated works that are beautiful,

thought-provoking, educational, challenging,

and avant-garde, by emerging and established

artists as well as local community talent.

In 2026, we are showcasing the work of nearly

90 artists in 6 shows. We are also offering

workshops, film screenings, art history lectures,

artist talks, receptions, field trips and an Art in

Bloom fundraiser.

​

How can we do all of this? With your support,

the gallery welcomes 3,000+ visitors every year!

We couldn’t keep the lights on – and shining upon

such gorgeous artwork – without your generous

support of our Annual Fund.

 

Our goal is $25,000. Will you help us?

​​

Thank you in advance for your generosity, and for your support of the arts in Tryon.
