The Horry County Museum presents a program by historian Carin Bloom on Saturday, October 10th at 1 PM on the Spirit of South Carolina. Spirit of South Carolina is a traditionally-rigged wooden sailing ship that was built and launched in Charleston between 2001 and 2007. Built to evoke the gaff-rigged pilot boats of days past, Spirit carries centuries of maritime history and heritage, embodying ships like Frances Elizabeth and other schooners that plied the waters of Charleston's harbor. As a modern, larger vessel, Spirit is the platform from which families, students, and lifelong learners participate in experiential education modules that develop teamwork and leadership skills, as well as practical sailing capabilities. With a new organization and a renewed focus, Education and Programs Director Carin Bloom is excited to share how Spirit's mission is moving forward, including the debut of our newest SC250 Commission-backed program: Harbor of Revolution, a program that focuses on Charleston Harbor's participation in the War for Independence. Carin is excited to share all of this and more!
The program is free to the public and will be held in the Museum’s McCown Auditorium located at 805 Main Street, Conway, SC 29526. For more information, call 843-915-5320 or email [email protected]. To view a full list of scheduled programs, visit the museum website at www.horrycountymuseum.org.
