PCAC at Emerge began as a gallery founded by Holly Garriott, Christina Miller and Leah Foushee, 3 ECU students who saw a need for community based arts organizations in Greenville’s downtown area, as well as an arts organization that could serve as a learning lab for ECU students.
Don Edwards, local businessman and arts supporter custom renovated a historic building for Emerge and donated it rent-free for over 2 years. In 2005, Emerge expanded into a full Community Art Center with classes for adults and children in pottery, metals, painting, textiles and photography.
