About this Event
Step beyond the glossy brochures and into an unforgettable cultural experience through historic communities on James Island, SC - some of Charleston’s oldest Gullah Geechee settlements.
Led by Gullah Geechee natives whose families have called this land home for generations, this immersive experience blends live storytelling, historical sites, and authentic artifacts to uncover the parts of Charleston’s history that textbooks conveniently skipped.
