SUMMARY:Mitchelville & The Gullah Museum: Foundations of Freedom and Memory
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, February 10\, we turn to stories rooted in Mitchelville\, Freedom Town\, and the Gullah Museum of Hilton Head Island. \nMitchelville was one of the first self-governing towns established by formerly enslaved people in America — on Hilton Head Island during the Civil War — where residents elected officials\, passed by-laws\, and built a community from the ground up. \nMeanwhile\, the Gullah Museum of Hilton Head (founded in 2003 by local Native Islander Louise Miller Cohen) preserves and shares Gullah history\, customs\, stories\, and art for visitors and for descendants seeking connection to their heritage. \nThis evening will explore how the resilient spirit of Mitchelville and the Museum’s mission together anchor the Gullah story — not just as history\, but as a living\, breathing tradition. \n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\nTicket & Attendance Details \n\n\nSingle-session tickets will be available for each evening for $30 per person \n\n\nSeries ticket (all three sessions) includes two complimentary tickets to the Gullah Celebration Village at the Hilton Head Island Seafood Festival on February 28\, 1:00–5:00 pm. ($40 Value) \n\n\nAttendance caps will ensure intimacy — come early to claim your seat and stay for the conversation.
