Goose Creek has a new cultural destination: The Creek Collective. Located on St. James Avenue, the space is designed as a creative hub for the Goose Creek community, offering art classes, book signings, rotating exhibitions, and special events. Pro tip: Visitors can explore and purchase original works by local artists, with a regularly updated gallery showcase.

The Creek Collective also doubles as an event venue and is available for private rentals, including weddings and celebrations. Its operating hours are Tuesday, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., Thursday, 1 to 5 p.m., and Saturday, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

A bit of history
The building sits on the site of a former wedding and prayer chapel that served the community for over 30 years before closing in 2021. The City of Goose Creek purchased and demolished the structure in 2022. The new building is 140 sqft larger and designed to honor the original chapel’s legacy.
