Redux Contemporary Art Center is a nonprofit gallery and artist-studio space at 1056 King St in Charleston. Stop in to see rotating exhibitions and murals, then browse the studios to find work by local artists, some of which is available to buy directly. Classes offer a chance to learn from working artists, and community events such as monthly Friday open mic nights add live performances to the program. Entry is free, so you can explore the art and studios without committing to a class or event.
Gallery and artist studios
Redux combines exhibition space with studios used by working artists. The nonprofit center supports local artists and connects them with audiences through exhibitions, studio space and educational programs. Its displays change, so the work on view depends on when you visit.
The studios give you a look beyond the gallery walls: artists make work in the building, and some have pieces available to buy outside their studios. Ask the host at the entrance if you have questions while exploring.
Exhibitions, murals and events
Rotating exhibitions include work across different mediums, and mural displays change over time. The program also includes community events, among them monthly Friday open mic nights. Check what is scheduled for your visit if you want to pair a gallery stop with a performance.
Redux runs classes for people interested in making art. Past participants have taken painting classes, including instruction in oil techniques. Ask about current classes and costs before signing up.
