THE SOUTH CAROLINA WATERCOLOR SOCIETY
Since 1977, the South Carolina Watercolor Society has been promoting the artistic and professional interests of it members as well as providing visual arts programs to the public. The Society works towards achieving its goals by making the accomplishments of its members available to a broad base of South Carolinians. The SCWS, the largest statewide visual arts group, is an active presenting organization. We nurture and promote South Carolina artists by proving exhibition opportunities, special programs to market their original works and coordinate educational programs. In addition, our goals include public outreach and participation in the arts.
