No matter what you do to make art, let’s do it together.

WE ARE ASSEMBLING THE LARGEST COMMUNITY OF QUEER CREATIVE PROFESSIONALS IN SOUTH CAROLINA

WHy Join?

  • INFORMATION

    We work with local arts organizations to bring you the latest information and resources to assist in your professional development, networking, and career goals. From grant opportunities to paid gigs, we work to keep you in the know!

  • SUPPORT

    Being a solo artist can be overwhelming, but that’s why we’re here. As a program of the LGBT+ Chamber, we want to make sure we provide the necessary support to assist you in your creative career.

  • Promotion

    Whether it’s social media, newsletters, or word-of-mouth, we’re eager to tell your story and in-turn help you land new projects, performances, and profit. Our goal is to help you make a living from your creative talent.

HOW TO JOIN?

Fill out this brief survey so we can best understand how to support your creative career. This survey will be administered by researchers from Furman University and is meant to support queer art in the Upstate of South Carolina. The Queer Arts Initiative is a program of the Upstate SC LGBT+ Chamber of Commerce. Once we have collected our surveys, we will reach out to more formally develop our next steps for membership.
