The 1Spark! festival began in 2014 and takes place between the campuses of Chapman Cultural Center and The George (home of the George Dean Johnson, Jr. College of Business and Economics at USC Upstate) - the literal crossroads of creativity and innovation - each fall.
A single spark of inspiration is all it takes to produce a masterpiece of art or an innovative business. Spartanburg is full of these sparks, shining bright with creativity and entrepreneurial spirit, so Chapman Cultural Center created 1Spark! to highlight these brilliant aspects of our community and to foster creative collaboration. It showcases Spartanburg's makers - visual artists, performers, entrepreneurs, inventors, and others - with entertainment and demonstrations.
"Spartanburg is already known throughout the region as a vibrant arts community, and nationwide as a pro-business community. What better way to celebrate two of our most valuable assets than to combine them into a single concept and event?"
-Jennifer Evins, President/ CEO
Local food trucks, regional musicians and dancers, small business owners, and artisans demonstrate their techniques and processes, and everybody engages in creativity challenges. Attendees can vote for their favorite artist or entrepreneur.
