Original Gullah Festival

The Original Gullah Festival of South Carolina, Inc. values education, family and so much more. We want our visitors to learn about the Gullah culture so they can it with others. That's why Lest We Forget is such an important part of the festival.

This is a walk-through educational platform offering the history, customs and culture of Gullah. This event takes place on Friday and Saturday of the Festival weekend from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM.
