During the art walk on May 17th the Spartanburg Image Collective, in cooperation with Preservation South Carolina and the Spartanburg
Photo Center, is hosting a silent auction at Ciclops Cyderi and Brewery to benefit the Carolina Theater Restoration Project. Throughout the years, the Carolina Theater has survived decades of use and, over time,
neglect. However, because this restoration is no small undertaking, money is needed. The amount needed is estimated to be 5.5
million dollars for total restoration. We are not expecting to raise that much from this auction; we are attempting to bring attention to
this historical gem that needs to be rescued.
The Carolina Theater renovation is a separate project from that of the Montgomery
building, and therefore needs its own attention. It’s anticipated to be a mixed use theater that could host activities and events from around the
world, once again bringing a historical stage to the heart of Spartanburg.
It is with this in mind that we invite you to
join us at Ciclops Cyderi & Brewery on May 17th for drinks and a silent auction. Multiple photographers of different skill-sets have
recently spent time wandering the aisles and perches of the theater. They have captured the immensity, history, and cultural importance from
multiple perspectives. Exclusive numbered framed prints will be for sale and on display.
Come and celebrate a local landmark’s past, present, and future in the company of those who took the time to photograph it!
