GREENWOOD, SC — The South Carolina Arts Alliance Board of Directors will hold their
annual retreat at the Arts Center of Greenwood on August 23-24.
In addition to conducting their first business meeting of the fiscal year and engaging in a day of
strategic planning, the board has scheduled a tour of local arts and cultural assets with the help
of Discover Greenwood. The board will also welcome its five newest members, who joined the
board on July 1st, and will host a small reception for board members and local leaders on Friday
evening.
“As one of South Carolina’s twelve Cultural Districts, Greenwood is a wonderful example of how
investing in the arts and local history enriches economies and overall quality of life throughout
the state,” says SCAA President Dana Gencarelli. “We’re very honored to have been invited to
hold our annual retreat at the Arts Center of Greenwood and look forward to experiencing
everything the community has to offer.”
Founded in 1979, the SCAA is the only statewide nonprofit organization dedicated to advocacy,
leadership development, and public awareness for the arts. Board Members represent different
communities from across the the state, and Arts Center of Greenwood Executive Director Sylvia
Martin has been a member of the board since 2022.
The Alliance’s recent work includes advocating for increases in state funding to support arts
organizations and arts education, conducting workshops and trainings, and gathering over 350
arts leaders, artists, educators, students, and other advocates at the State House in February
for their annual SC Arts Day.
