Irena JamesonI had a wonderful experience at the Art & Oysters event at the Pin Point Heritage Museum. Hosted by the Coastal Heritage Society, it was a perfect blend of local art, delicious Lowcountry cuisine, and a beautiful waterfront setting along Moon River. The artists were incredibly talented, and the oyster roast and atmosphere made the evening truly special. I also appreciated learning more about the rich Gullah/Geechee heritage. Highly recommend attending this event!

Elken GrateBeautiful l, historic and cultural experience ❤️. Truly informal and enlightening. The cultural influence and stroll offers a jam pack rewarding experience for everyone. The staff was knowledgeable, kind and willing to provide answers to curious visitors. Highly recommend and you do not have to print your ticket. Simply shown them the ticket on your phone. Also to note, the Pin Point areas greatly needs your financial support to keep the only Black Owned Marsh land property remaining that is not developed. The history must be preserved. In addition, the active and operating church is still accessible for service. Come support and praise the Lord on this must see history lesson.

Casey MorrisThis museum was amazing! The fusion of oral history and descriptive/tertiary source gave voice to the people and the area and enlivened my experience and connection experience at a deep and personal level to which I could see and let be. Lou was fantastic. She has an a degree in Africana studies and proves it with great insight and description of the history. The rest of the staff was accommodating and pleasant. I feel that I did not belong on such sacred grounds regardless of whether I am white but more so because I’m not Gullah/Geechee! If you are interested in Clarence Thomas/Republican history go to the Pin Point Museum. It was probably one of the most sacred places you could be in the U.S. beside for Mount Rushmore/The Black Hills or what is left of Native culture(the pueblas of New Mexico/Arizona and the natural landscape of the American West).
