Decorative Arts Trust’s Fall Symposium
Lowcountry Legacies: Charleston and Coastal South Carolina
In Charleston, SC, on November 8–10.
Wrought iron gates and piazza doors swing open when the Trust visits the Holy City of Charleston, where cobblestone streets are lined with pastel-hued houses, live oak trees drip with Spanish moss, and hospitality is considered a competitive sport! As we explore South Carolina’s maritime jewel, a rich heritage of craftsmanship dating back more than three centuries comes into focus. We delight in special access to the city’s beloved and admired residences in the South of Broad, Ansonborough, and Harleston Village neighborhoods. Scholars, preservationists, and curators lead our guests through a proper showcase of the Lowcountry’s history, architecture, interiors, and complex narratives, as well as Charleston’s remarkable legacy of advancing historic preservation. From a spectacular opening salvo at Drayton Hall to the city’s palmetto-lined streets and vibrant architecture, Charleston’s picturesque environs keep us captivated, curious, and charmed.
