ROCK HILL, S.C. — Artists at Rock Hill’s Gettys Art Center have until the end of August to get out. The center has been a home for the art community for 40 years.
The city terminated the lease for artists, despite not having a buyer for the building, The Herald reported.
In February, the city leased the property to the York County Arts Council at a discount, but it cost the city about 62,000 a year to maintain the building.
The building is listed for $2.26 million.
Art community members are looking for a buyer to lease the building back to them.
