About the Arts Center
Once an elementary school filled with learning and imagination, the Simpsonville Arts Center has been thoughtfully transformed into a lively hub for the arts—respecting its history while embracing creative expression today. The building’s historic character remains woven into every space, forming a meaningful link between generations of students, artists, and audiences. Former classrooms, hallways, and gathering areas now serve as galleries, studios, and performance spaces, each with its own story. Through visual art, music, theater, and community programming, these familiar spaces are reimagined, allowing history and modern creativity to coexist in a place where stories continue to be shared and inspired.
