Upstate Visual Arts artists participate in a number of smaller rotating exhibits such as those at Art in the Market (Whole Foods Market on Woodruff Road), Green Valley Country Club and Upstate Visual Arts' own gallery at 701 Pendleton St. in Greenville. These smaller exhibits showcase the region's artists to the community on a continual basis.
