You might remember the art call from April about a new mural in Spartanburg. Well, it’s here. Chapman Cultural Center was a partner in the project and has a good look at how the project took shape!

Hey, by the way: if you’re #SCartists and interested in securing a public art gig, the SCAC can help…but you need to act soon.
