#### Browse the collection of this visual arts museum, set in Charleston’s Historic District. Its detailed Beaux Arts style makes it as impressive outside as inside.

When you arrive for a visit of the Gibbes Museum of Art, stop for a moment to notice the exterior architectural details of the Beaux Arts masterpiece. Inside, soaring ceilings showcase the unique viewing spaces of Charleston’s premier art museum, whose collection was initiated in 1858\. It is recognized as one of the country’s oldest arts organizations. Explore an extensive collection of American art that seamlessly tells the story of Charleston through thousands of permanent objects and several special exhibitions annually.

Stroll along the Angela D. Mack Promenade, where you can see artists at work in resident studio spaces. Hands-on classrooms host art classes for all ages. Attend a public lecture or program in the Fellows Member Reception Area or Almeida Lecture Hall. In the Ruth and Bill Baker Art Sales Gallery, peruse and purchase artwork, with proceeds contributing toward career support for artists in the Visiting Artists program. Browse the Museum Store for jewelry, gift items, art supplies, books and other objects focused on regional artists.

The Gibbes Museum of Art sits along Museum Mile in the Historic District. Consider visiting other gems along the strip, including the Aiken-Rhett House Museum, the Charleston Museum, the Children’s Museum of the Lowcountry, the Joseph Manigault House, the Washington Light Infantry, the Museum at Market Hall and The Powder Magazine.

After your museum visits, walk to nearby Marion Square, known for its seasonal farmers market from April through November. Enjoy views of some of the city’s most prestigious buildings. The park is popular with students and staff from the neighboring College of Charleston. The annual Wine + Food Festival and renowned Piccolo Spoleto Festival are also held at the park.

Find the Gibbes Museum of Art on Meeting Street two blocks south of the Historic Charleston Market between Cumberland and Queen streets. There is no on-site parking. Instead, park at the Charleston County parking garage one block away on Queen Street. The museum is open daily. Admission to the first floor and its activities is free. Purchase tickets to view the galleries on the second and third floors. Docents are available at certain hours to answer questions.

Beautiful property in a great location. Our room opened out to a large balcony overlooking the garden/courtyard where we enjoyed our morning coffee to the sounds of water and birds every morning. We walked almost everywhere, but also used the free shuttle.

![The Dock Street Theatre is Charleston's last surviving hotel from the antebellum period. The silhouette of its wrought iron balcony against the spire of St. Philip's church may be the single most photographed spot in the city. The main portion of the building was constructed around 1809 as Planter's Hotel. The hotel was built by Alexander Calder and his wife, who did so by renovating several pre-existing buildings at the site. The main entrance may not have been built until 1855 by J.W. Gamble.

The hotel was used extensively by planters from the midlands of South Carolina, who traveled to Charleston during horse-racing season. It was noted for its wonderful food and drinks during this era, and the South's famous Planter's Punch may have originated here. Guests to the hotel passed through the recessed porch with brownstone columns, into the lobby, and up a grand staircase that ascended to a drawing room. While much of the interior has been altered, these elements of the antebellum hotel remain and were adapted in subsequent uses of the building. A series of additions to the hotel throughout the 19th and 20th centuries can be easily identified by differences in brick coloration.

This theater is said to have been the first building built specifically for theatrical performances in America. Planter's Hotel occasionally housed one of the city's theatrical troupes, which performed at the nearby New Theatre during the mid-19th century. The most notable actor of this troupe was Junius Brutus Booth. Booth was the patriarch of an outstanding family of actors, which included John Wilkes Booth, President Lincoln's assassin. Junius Booth, who stayed at the Planter's Hotel, allegedly tried to kill his manager here in 1838. Today the Dock Street Theatre is home to the Charleston Stage Company, South Carolina's largest professional theater production company, and houses the city's Cultural Affairs office as well as The City Gallery, an exhibition space for local artists.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/179997/14f8620c-8704-4ca7-afac-d8a0645b94d2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh)
