The Charleston Gaillard Center on Wednesday announced the Carolinas Together Hurricane Relief Concert to be held on Sunday, November 3rd. This special event will showcase some of the South’s most celebrated artists, including Shovels & Rope, Ranky Tanky, Charlton Singleton & Friends, Quiana Parler, Elise Testone, Marcus Amaker, Asiah Mae, and more to be announced. All proceeds from the concert will benefit the North Carolina Arts Foundation’s NC Arts Disaster Relief Fund, providing critical financial support to artists and arts organizations in Western North Carolina, starting with basic necessities and eventually helping to rebuild the region’s arts community.
To further generate support at this event, representatives from other Charleston institutions—including Charleston Stage, The Citadel, Palmetto City Ballet, and College of Charleston, among others—will be present, offering additional opportunities to support their institution’s fundraising efforts.
Lowcountry Arts for WNC was formed as a collaborative effort by Charleston-area arts organizations to harness the city’s diverse artistic platforms and raise funds for hurricane relief in Western North Carolina. Through initiatives like the Carolinas Together Hurricane Relief Concert, the collective taps into the strength of Charleston’s vibrant arts community to maximize support for recovery efforts.
“This concert reflects our community’s deep understanding of the devastation hurricanes can cause, and we are honored to partner with these incredible artists and Lowcountry Arts for WNC to make a meaningful difference for our neighbors,” said Lissa Frenkel, President & CEO of the Charleston Gaillard Center. “We are proud to be facilitating these efforts alongside other institutions in Charleston to make the greatest possible impact.”
Tickets are on sale now at gaillardcenter.org. All proceeds benefit the NC Arts Disaster Relief Fund.
