ABOUT CONVIVIAL

Join us at Wilkinson ART Gallery, Greenville SC.

We do the hosting so you’ll have an opportunity to unwind, bring old friends and make new ones.
 

A friend moved to Greenville a few years ago, by way of New York City, and then Singapore. So, coming from urban density to our sprawling landscape, it was mentioned how meeting new people locally and making new friends can be such a slow process.
 

Greenville’s a busy place with plenty of family-friendly and other community events, but what about scaled down, easy-going, non-commercial ways to meet a diversity of like-minded creative souls? It's all about new energy, new curiosity, and a healthy infusion of laughter is A-OK.
 

Talk turned to group events like house concerts, invitation only gatherings of music fans at a private home where a well known singer-songwriter performs for a small crowd of around 30 people.
 

So, with that example in mind we decided to host similar casual gatherings, sans the concert part, where art and cultural interests are a backdrop, and conversations run free.
 

Why Attend:
 

Insights: Gain insights about Greenville and the upstate from talking with locals and newbies. Discover the hidden culture of our area, from music, art, and photography, to gardening. From food markets to side-street shops, neighboring towns, and sources for just about anything.
 

Connect: IMPORTANT -- This is a Plus-1 invitation: please bring someone who's new to the area, or someone who hasn't been to this location before, or just bring old friends and we'll all make new ones.
 

Refreshments: Enjoy a selection of chili samplers and appetizers (while they last) in a creative atmosphere. (Food selections subject to change for future gatherings).
