This is our fourth year holding the festival at the Certus Loft at the Huguenot Mill, and we're so grateful for the partnership we've developed with The Peace Center---the managers of the Huguenot Mill. The Peace Center is Greenville's premiere performing arts center which every year boasts nationally acclaimed artists and tours.

From their website: In addition to being Greenville's most popular performance venue, The Peace Concert Hall is an excellent space for lectures, annual meetings and graduations. A total of 2,100 seats, the hall features state-of-the-art acoustics and a hydraulic orchestra pit. The Peace Center Lobby is equipped with three portable full-service bar stations and is an inviting meeting area for cocktail parties and medium-sized social gatherings.

Besides the main Concert Hall, the Peace Center complex also includes an outdoor performance stage, a smaller children's theatre, a beautifully preserved pavilion, the theatre lounge, and of course the Huguenot Mill. Our partnership with the Peace Center this year includes their sponsorship of the VIP Gala. The theatre lounge's restaurant, Genevieve's, is providing the food for our kick off party. Expect a menu of delightful heavy hors d'oeuvres to accompany an evening of live music, local drinks, and the best handmade goods the South has to offer.

About Genevieve's: Soaring three-story ceilings. Dramatic lighting. A sliding glass wall that connects you with a view of rooflines, the Reedy River walkway, the grand staircase, and the TD Stage music pavilion. Free-flowing floor space that combines a 4,000 square foot lounge and an 800 square foot balcony. All of this, along with elegant contemporary décor make Genevieve’s one of the most exciting event spaces around. You simply have to see it for yourself!
