Greenville Designer Jewelry Show

PREVIEW NIGHT
Saturday, Dec. 3rd 6:00-9:00pm

MAKE MADE is excited to announce their inaugural Greenville Designer Jewelry Show (formerly known as the ‘Greenville Jewelry Invitational’), the very first event of its kind, to be held at Greenville Center for Creative Arts on Sunday, December 4th, 2022. Limited to SC and NC artists, this exciting one day juried show will host 10-20 professional jewelry makers hand selected by their esteemed juror — just in time for holiday shopping. The show will be held on December 4th, 2022 in the Village arts district of West Greenville, South Carolina.


The show is the first and only one of it's kind in the area, and they aim to amplify excellence in artisan jewelry in a city that has a strong and growing value for supporting local artists and shopping local. The one day show will celebrate excellence among local and semi-local jewelry designers, and will complement many of Greenville’s other arts events by offering a show specific to this medium, garnering esteemed participants from just beyond the Upstate, and offering a one of a kind holiday shopping experience that supports small American made artisan businesses.


Throughout the global pandemic, many fellow artists lost a major source of income – doing in-person retail shows. As well as becoming a much-anticipated local artisan/shopping event, this show will be an opportunity to return to retail and normalcy for many of the participating jewelry artists.

What is Open Studios?

Greenville Open Studios is an annual event which opens the studios of local visual artists to the public. Now entering its 20th year, Greenville Open Studios began as an idea cast about during a casual conversation between a small group of artists; they discussed doing something to raise awareness in the greater community of the tremendous creative energy in the area. The idea has evolved into a full-fledged annual event.

The 2021 self-guided tour will feature 139 artists and their studios. 96 studio locations vary throughout a 15-mile radius of downtown Greenville with Easley, Greer, Travelers Rest and Simpsonville included. Greenville Open Studios YouTube channel and the app. 

The goals of Greenville Open Studios are to provide free and convenient community access to visual arts, to educate and create a dialogue between artists and the general public by opening artists’ place of work and inviting the community-at-large to participate in the creative process, and to create new marketing opportunities for artists. It is the organizers’ desire that the project will open up the world of visual artists to everyone – from the seasoned collector to the first-time art buyer to the curious general public.
