T-shirts are a dime a dozen, but every now and then one comes along that leaves a lasting impression. During Gallery Up’s Social T-shirt Invitational you’ll find a collection of limited edition, original T-shirts. Ten artists — including Drew Heffron of New York, JT Helms of Chicago, Brandon Oxendine of Charleston, Katie Lloyd of Clemson, Justin VanHoy and Nicholas Bowers of Los Angeles, Jason Gammon, Keeley Carrigan and Rachel Botting of Charlotte, and Jen Ray of Berlin — specially designed the threads for the display. This evening’s artists’ reception — paired with the celebration of Social Design House’s one-year anniversary — will feature live music by Hard Mix, food and a cash bar. Exhibit continues through June 10. Free. Reception on May 19, 6 p.m.-9 p.m. Gallery Up, 201 E. Main St., Rock Hill, S.C. 803-980-5355. www.galleryup.com.
