Jubiliee Artfest & Open House at the Edisto Island Museum

Description

The Edisto Island Museum will be hosting a Jubilee Artfest and Open House on Saturday, November 28th, from 10:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. There will be no charge for admission to the Museum. In addition to the Artfest, there will be a sale on many items in the Gift Shop.

On the Museum grounds, there will be a selection of artists with their individual displays of their artwork for sale, so you’ll get a chance to meet the various craftsmen and purchase their works. All proceeds will go to the artists, with the Museum taking no commission fees.

“This is our way of saying thank you to the arts community and celebrating their talent,” said Gretchen Smith, Executive Director of the Edisto Island Historic Preservation Society. “We will also be celebrating our 40th birthday.

“We have long believed that we have incredible talent both locally and across the state, and we think it’s important to show our support and appreciation for what these artists do,” said Smith. “We want to celebrate them, while giving our visitors the rare opportunity to get to know these folks. In addition to the artists, we will be having music and a food truck, so it should be a really fun day for everyone.”
