O'Driscoll Wildlife Art Studio is located in the midlands of South Carolina and has been creating and publishing original artwork since 1983. We are a family owned and operated business that specializes in wildlife, most particularly, birds. Because we come from a background in zoological illustration, our art is extremely realistic, accurate, and anatomically correct. This gives the impression that our work is some sort of photography, but it is all hand-painted in acrylic using a combination of brush and airbrush.

The Center was built in 1890 and originally named the Immanuel Institute and has always been a school for African American children. In the mid to late 1970s, the building was owned by the Salvation Army. Once the Salvation Army moved to the South side of Aiken, renovations began to restore the building for public use. In March 2022, the Center was absorbed by the City of Aiken in efforts to preserve the rich history of African American culture in Aiken and the surrounding area. The facilities on the second floor are available to rent for business meetings and events. Equipped with a screen and projector, audio system, chairs, and tables. There is a catering kitchen for your convenience and restrooms.
