SOBA’s 32nd Annual Judged Show is coming — and this year we are asking Lowcountry businesses to consider sponsoring.
Supporting the Society of Bluffton Artists ensures events like the High School Art Show, the McCracken Scholarship for Bluffton High seniors, workshops, and a gallery stays alive for this whole community.
Sponsors get real perks too — including an invitation to the private Preview Reception on August 31, where you get first access to purchase artwork before the show opens to the public. Recognition in SOBA’s marketing, your name or logo on posters around town, and a spot at the Opening Awards Reception September 2.
Levels start at $100. Judged Show runs September 1–October 4.
