Artisphere Presented by TD Bank Goes Virtual
Wednesday, September 2nd, 2020
Artisphere presented by TD Bank, one of the nation’s top Fine Arts festivals, will be transformed into a virtual event the weekend of October 2-4. Artisphere- The Virtual Experience will go live to the public on Friday, October 2nd at 8 pm.
Artisphere -The Virtual Experience will feature the work of over 70 juried professional artists from around the country. Each artist will have multiple pieces for sale in an online marketplace, where patrons can seamlessly browse and shop from a varied and curated selection of art, from pottery to oils to jewelry.
“Although we can’t be together in our usual festival atmosphere this year, we are proud to continue our partnership with Artisphere to present The Virtual Experience,” said Chris Fincher, Regional Vice President for TD Bank, America’s Most Convenient Bank. “We hope the Upstate community will join us virtually as we show our support for these talented artists from across the country and our unique, vibrant arts culture in Greenville.”
The Virtual Experience will also provide unique opportunities for engagement with artists, jurors, and gallerists through Facebook and Instagram Live. Programming also includes favorites from past Artispheres, such as metalsmith Ryan Calloway and chalk artist Nate Baranowski, live from Chicago, as well as Kidsphere activities and Artist Demos.
“Our aim is to create an engaging virtual experience for the Artisphere faithful,” stated Linda Hannon, President of the Artisphere Board of Directors. “Our patrons have become accustomed to a level of unparalleled artistry and programming and our innovative approach to this year’s show will not disappoint.”
Art patrons can experience Artisphere presented by TD Bank -The Virtual Experience October 2-4 by visiting the Artisphere website at Artisphere.org. Patrons are encouraged to sign up for the newsletter and follow on Instagram and Facebook to stay informed.
