Edgy Exhibits. Provocative programs. Wow! Workshops. The Upstairs Artspace is a non profit contemporary art gallery in downtown Tryon, North Carolina. We exhibit two- and three-dimensional art and craft by leading artists of the Southeast and, particularly, the Carolinas. We have an incomparable reputation for art that is sometimes experimental, often avant garde and always collectible. Our artists are usually established in their careers, but we also welcome the emerging artist whose work is impressive for being fresh, innovative and challenging.

 

Hours: Tues through Sat 11 am to 5 pm
