What's Up?

Have you heard of APPLS? Created by the South Carolina Artists Group, Art in Public Places for Lexington SC also known as APPLS. Their mission to visually enrich, and strengthen the community by promoting the exhibition of professional art in work spaces and general public areas. Their exhibits benefit residents, business owners, students, artists, art lovers and all who are inspired by the arts.


In their ongoing effort to expand throughout Lexington County Coordinator Alexandra White met with the Lexington County Council Tuesday, April 12, 2011 (http://www.lex-co.com/Documents/4-12-11.pdf ).  Her exciting and beautiful presentation provided examples of current exhibits by the SCA/APPLS group in businesses around Lexington.  The unanimous vote by the council for art by the South Carolina Artists Group to exhibit in Lexington County Buildings. The State Newspaper covered the story and interviewed other members of the group (http://www.thestate.com/2011/04/20/1785409/art-coming-to-county-walls-halls.html).
