Lowcountry Legacies: Charleston and Coastal South Carolina – Fall Symposium

Register now for our Fall Symposium on November 7–10, with a Pre-Tour in Beaufort on November 6–7 and a Post-Tour in Georgetown on November 10!

Wrought iron gates and piazza doors swing open when Trust visits the Holy City of Charleston! Join us this fall in the Holy City where cobblestone streets are lined with pastel-hued houses, live oak trees drip with Spanish moss, a rich heritage of craftsmanship dates back more than three centuries, and hospitality is considered a competitive sport. We will delight in privileged access to the city’s most beloved and admired residences, with the South of Broad, Ansonborough, and Harleston Village neighborhoods coming into particular focus. 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.
