So, from what I gather if you are not originally from Columbia you stick out like a sore thumb and people notice and that is not always a good thing. Even if you are from another part of the state you are still considered a bit of an outsider. It is a small town and apparently everyone knows everyone and their business. People have their set ways and aren't always receptive to new things. The ladies who run Pocosin Arts Center were talking today how some people in town are a little put off by the place stating that "That's where the nekkid people are". It's true, folk artists do prefer to work in the nude...potters, blacksmiths, weavers...all naked.
Although, everyone I've met in town has been very nice and Pocosin does do a lot for the community especially with the school...who doesn't love community building?
