MACK Membership Information for 2022
Just a reminder to our MACK Membership … Our membership communication in 2022 will continue with quarterly reminders for your annual membership contributions. You may renew your membership at the beginning of the quarter, or wait until the month you renew. Either way, your membership is good for 12 months. Please note all gifts that are $250 or more will automatically enroll you as a Keturah Club member, our highest level, in addition to joining our Friends of the MACK giving program.
How to become a MACK Member?
You can enroll as a MACK member while enjoying our newly relocated gift shop. Our Artisans Guild & Gift Shop is now a thriving part of downtown McCormick and is open Monday – Saturday from 10:00 am – 4:00 pm. The Gift Shop is located at 218 S. Main St, McCormick SC, 28935. Online and mail-in options are also available. Please email mccormickarts@gmail.com for links and additional information or call (864) 852-3216.
Artisans Guild & Gift Shop
The MACK Artisans Guild & Gift Shop features quality handcrafted items including jewelry, cards, pottery, fine art, and much more. To support the rehabilitation efforts of the historic Keturah hotel, the MACK Artisans Guild and Gift Shop relocated to 218 S. Main Street. This program is entirely operated by local artists and volunteers. They had record-breaking sales and customers in December and a successful gift basket drive. The winners are posted in the shop for anyone interested. What a wonderful end to 2021!
