From staff reports
“Art Speaks,” an exhibit featuring art created by Beaufort County artists during the Covid-19 pandemic, opens Thursday, Sept. 3 at the USC Beaufort Center for the Arts.
In addition to paintings and photography, the eclectic exhibit also includes wood, textiles, silver and more. While some pieces are a direct response to the pandemic, many are escapes from it. “Art Speaks” is as diverse as the artists who have contributed to the juried exhibit.
All artists are 18 and older and living in Beaufort County. The exhibit is part of a special kick-off event at the Center called, “The Show Must Go On.”
The exhibit is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday until November 1. Masks and social distancing are required.
