Fort McAllister State Historic Park is inviting photographers of all ages to take part in its Fall Photo Contest, running October 1 through December 20. This contest is a chance to showcase your creativity, highlight the park’s beauty, and share unique perspectives of this historic site.
Arts on the Coast has several important updates for our members, including artwork pickup and drop-off details, upcoming deadlines for our September show Lore, and a first look at the exciting ArtNite themes planned for 2026. Please review the information below so you’re ready to participate and showcase your work.
Arts on the Coast (AOC) will host its upcoming ArtNite exhibition, LORE, at the Richmond Hill City Center beginning Friday, September 26, 2025. The show will open with a public reception from 5:30 to 8:00 PM and remain on view through early December. LORE will feature new works by AOC member artists, each exploring the theme of storytelling through visual art. From cultural myths to personal histories, the exhibition invites audiences to experience narratives expressed in painting, photography, sculpture, and mixed media.
The Arts on the Coast (AOC) extends our sincerest condolences to the family of Carol Hartley. She was a founding member of AOC and an integral part of our arts community in Richmond Hill and beyond.

2025 UPCOMING AOC + COMMUNITY ART EVENTS
In the autumn of 2023, Savannah-GA based artist Cora Ennis Morris (b. 1965, Hartford, CT) found herself longing for the rich tapestry of New England’s four seasons. She began working on a body of work that would reconnect her to those vibrant cycles of nature.
This is the final drop-of date for participation in the next Great Oaks Bank / Estes Gallery show.
The Arts on the Coast will change out the physical Gallery located inside the Welcome Center at 10750 Ford Avenue in Richmond Hill, GA.
Join the Arts on the Coast as we gather for art fellowship - touching base, catching up and seeing/critiquing and getting feedback about the latest pieces of work created.
