CURRENT EXHIBITION
What does it take to build the Upside Down?
Before the monsters, the vines, and the unforgettable sets became part of Stranger Things, artists spent years bringing them to life behind the scenes.
Now you can experience that creative process right here in Beckley.
Join us at the Beckley Art Center for a one-of-a-kind exhibit featuring original props, creature effects, set pieces, costumes, and behind-the-scenes artwork by Seay Earheart, who worked on Stranger Things from Season 1 through Season 5 as Scenic Foreman, Lead Set Designer, Special Effects Artist, and Lead Sculptor.
Exhibit: August 2 – September 4
Opening Reception & Artist Talk
August 2 | 2:00–4:00 PM
Meet Seay, hear the stories behind the sets and creature effects, and discover how one of Netflix's most iconic worlds was built.
Admission: $10 per person
FREE for Beckley Art Center Members
Seay will also be appearing at the Appalachian Arts & Crafts Fair on Friday (10 AM–6 PM), where he'll be available for autographs and will serve as a judge for the BAG Art Exhibit.
Whether you're a lifelong Stranger Things fan, love movie magic, or simply appreciate incredible craftsmanship, this is an exhibit you won't want to miss.
