Hey there, Columbia! Are you ready for a fantastic evening filled with local culture, creativity, and community connections? Mark your calendars for November 15, because the much-anticipated Philosophy of Five Points is returning to our vibrant city for its second annual celebration! It’s not just an event; it’s a whole vibe that you won’t want to miss.
So, what’s the scoop on the Philosophy of Five Points? This unique event is all about bringing together merchants, artists, and University of South Carolina faculty for an evening of interactive fun. Picture this: local restaurants and shops transforming into pop-up art exhibits where you can not only observe but actively participate in the creations. Cool, right?
This collaboration is made possible by the wonderful folks at Cola Love, the University of South Carolina Philosophy Department, and the iconic Five Points district. According to Nell Fuller, Co-Founder of Cola Love, the night is “designed to foster creativity and conversation.” And who wouldn’t want that?
Join in the fun from 5:30 to 8 p.m. as you embark on a “curiosity crawl” through the Five Points area. Whether you’re a regular or new to the district, this event is a perfect opportunity to explore and connect with local businesses that truly make our community special. Iconic spots like Drip and Papa Jazz will keep their doors open late to welcome guests and showcase the amazing offerings of the area.
What sets this event apart is the chance to collaborate with local artists in creating a piece of art that encourages philosophical thinking. Don’t worry if you’re not an experienced artist; you can help spark creativity as the night progresses. With the guiding hands of talented artists, your contribution could take the artwork in a direction you never imagined. Jared Johnson, marketing director for the Philosophy of Five Points, emphasizes this perfect blend of art and engagement: “It is one thing to watch art and appreciate it, but people don’t often have the opportunity to contribute.”
This event isn’t just about creating amazing art; it’s also about diving into some deep and meaningful conversations, especially during this election season. “I think we all have philosophical thoughts… as we move through this election season,” said Johnson. The evening presents a perfect moment to ponder life’s big questions and connect with others who might feel the same.
Besides the art and discussions, there’s even more fun on the agenda! Keep your eyes peeled for a heart-charm scavenger hunt throughout the venue. How fun does that sound? And if that isn’t enough, the night will wrap up with an exciting afterparty at Proof at Claussen’s, featuring live music, drinks, and plenty to celebrate regarding creativity, curiosity, and culture.
