Local Takes - Aaron Pate
Aaron Pate was awarded a community grant towards the project, Local Takes, which aims to bring Spartanburg together by celebrating local artists and sharing their stories with the community through documentary films. This production will launch six short documentary films, each interviewing a Spartanburg artist about their life and work, their challenges and revelations, and the stories that have shaped them. Featured artists are: Addam Duncan, Beth Regula, Roderice Cardell "The Madddartist", Lucy Boland, Andrew Blanchard, and Annette Giaco. The Local Takes premiere screening and after-party will be on February 20th at Drayton Mills, bringing the community together to celebrate our sponsors and artists.
To continue to fund projects that support the Spartanburg arts community, we ask that you consider supporting local artists and organizations by donating to the Chapman Cultural Center.
