Open call for artists who work in 3D media to create a commission for Oyster Factory Park.

The Town is seeking sculptors and other 3D artists to create an original, durable outdoor piece for historic Oyster Factory Park. The Oyster Factory itself is the last hand-shucking facility in South Carolina, and the commission should educate visitors about the importance of fishing, sh*****ng, and oystering to our local economy and the environmental gem that is the May River. It is the heart of our town.

The open call is due January 10, 2025, and is managed by Call For Entry.
