About Me

The Paper Cafe is an art gallery / artist's space that is working to promote the arts within Charleston and create a greater awareness for art in general. It opened in 2004 after extensive renovations to the building were made by Jennifer Black, the owner of the gallery. Several successful shows were held over the course of the next two years, featuring area artists and attracting a large variety of guests.After a two year hiatus from 2006 to 2008, the gallery reopened its doors to the public with a three night event, featuring the works of Matthew Searle + Samantha Davenport. Shows are continuously making their way through the gallery, so check back for updates.Any individual or group interested in finding out more about the gallery or displaying work there can contact the gallery via this myspace page, owner Jennifer Black at [email protected], or Seth Carpenter at [email protected] . Thank you for taking the time to visit, and come back often.
