The Saxapahaw Artists is a non-profit organization that was founded with simple goals- to showcase "local" and "regional" artists, and in the process, highlight Saxapahaw as a positive, growing, creative cultural community. We strive to reach this goal by creating a greater community awareness of the arts and art related events.

Located in the heart of Saxapahaw, in the historic Sellars building, the Saxapahaw Artists is proud to represent over 50 mid-career and emerging artists and craftsmen.

New shows are mounted each month featuring 2 selected artists work on display. A rich diversity of mediums and subject matter are evident in the selection of works exhibited. Artist receptions are held on the 1st Friday of each month from 6:30-9 PM and always include great music!

Future plans for Gallery include moving to a larger location that will include increased Gallery space and The Sax- ArtCenter where both children and adults will explore and learn about art both indoors and outdoors. The ArtCenter will become the cultural hub of the community and enhance a quality of life for all through high quality exhibitions and educational programs covering a wide range of themes and formats: workshops, on-going classes, Family Art Experiences ,youth programs, artist presentations, lectures/demos and accessible studio time. Patron Memberships are Available.

The Saxapahaw Artists has an annual juried Art Festival in the Fall, The Sax-Art Riverwalk and there are plans for a Plein-Air Festival to be held later this year. Both the Riverwalk and the Plein Air Festival will be held this year on Saturday, SEPTEMBER 22nd- Details available at saxapahaw.artists@gmail.com
