IMPORTANT NOTICE

The City Council of Rock Hill has listed the Tom S. Gettys Center for public sale—putting in jeopardy the thriving artist community within the heart of Old Town, Rock Hill, South Carolina which has been present there for almost 40 years. You can see the commercial real estate listing here.

If the City Council moves forward with this, the artists, galleries and art organizations will be evicted—without any relocation plans at the time of this email.

WHAT ELSE YOU CAN DO

Write to the Rock Hill City Council members. You can use a template we’ve provided as a starting point. Various formats are available below. Direct link to each council members email information here.
