Spartanburg Fringe Arts Festival is a new summer festival in Upstate South Carolina that celebrates the creativity of those usually considered to be on the “fringe” of polite society. Throughout the month, we will present dozens of shows, exhibits, and events in theatre, music, dance, comedy, spoken word, film, and progressive thinking.
Headlining will be writer, director, producer Del Shores, the bad boy of Sordid Lives; Fun Home, a Tony-winning Broadway musical; House of Mann, mind-blowing and gender-bending fashions; and Rev. Jim Dant, a nationally recognized thought-leader in Christian acceptance of alternative lifestyles.
There will also be an art exhibit and regional performing artists in theatre, music, and literature.

Sunday, June 9 – Friday, June 14, 2019
Furman’s Band and Orchestra Camp is an intensive one-week experience designed to encourage 260 students, ages 12-18, to fuel their musical enthusiasm and boost their playing skills. Talented musicians from across the country come to Furman with expectations of taking their performance skills to the next level. Students are challenged in vigorous daily rehearsals, musicianship classes, and master classes. Students perform in one of four large ensembles (a full symphony orchestra, a string orchestra, and two concert bands) and may audition for a jazz ensemble, various chamber groups, or perform as a soloist on the Honors Solo Recital. The evening recitals and the Friday concert are open to the public. In addition to the ensemble rehearsals, the camp offers classes in basic musicianship, optional
private lessons and daily recreational activities, all within the beautiful setting of the Furman University campus.
We strongly urge you to add private lessons to the camp experience. They are an ideal way to work one-on-one with an experienced musician on the fundamentals of playing, including tone production, technique, maintenance and musicianship. Content is personalized for the student’s playing level. Lessons are $35 per 30 minute session.

We’ve been talking to the folks from Bardic Alchemy, a Celtic Rock band from Asheville and they’ve agreed to play at Triskelion as many Tuesdays as they can come down to the Brewery.
Bardic Alchemy is a brand new element in the Celtic Rock world. This trio, based in the mountains of Asheville, North Carolina is comprised of multi-instrumentalist Connell Sanderson, guitarist Nick Marcone and percussionist and vocalist Tyler Watts.
Bardic Alchemy is best described as a psychedelic trip into a musical world that is heavily inspired by the Celtic musical traditions…run through various effects pedals. Everything from soothing, mellifluously reverberating whistle melodies supported by groovy guitar lines and thumping djembe beats to high energy dance tunes on the Scottish and Irish pipes to three part vocal harmonies and even improvised pieces, Bardic Alchemy is a surprisingly dynamic and unpredictable musical journey.
So… Tuesdays… will now be…
Celtic Rock Tuesday!
