NORTH CHARLESTON, SC – The City of North Charleston’s Cultural Arts Department is pleased to announce that works by The South Carolina Watermedia Society will be on exhibit at the North Charleston City Gallery from October 3-31, 2011.

The South Carolina Watermedia Society is the only statewide visual arts organization in South Carolina to promote artists who work in watermedia, which includes watercolor, acrylic, gouache, and casein among others. Their annual juried exhibition, which has been presented since 1977, offers both new and established artists from around the state the opportunity to compete for prize money and to have their work exhibited in a variety of venues under the supervision of the South Carolina State Museum’s Traveling Exhibitions Program. A number of the works on view will be available for purchase. The show is accompanied by a DVD containing commentary from the juror, a portfolio of artists’ resumes, and colorful exhibit brochures.

As the state’s largest visual arts guild, the South Carolina Watermedia Society provides exhibition opportunities, professional development, and educational programs. For more information about the group, visit scwatermedia.com.
