Summer is right around the corner and we couldn’t be more excited! There are so many great events going on throughout the Lowcountry including a world-renowned annual arts festival, a fun event at a local park and a plethora of Farmers Markets. Here is our round-up for the month of June:
- Spoleto Festival USA (now- June 9th): Every spring, Spoleto Festival USA is a highly anticipated event that draws both a local and out-of-town crowd. For two weeks, the city will play host to artists, musicians, actors, dancers and more with performances throughout the city’s most special venues. (Image from Spoleto Festival USA)
- Brunch in Hampton Park (June 2nd): What a better way to spend a Sunday afternoon than brunching in Hampton Park? The Charleston Parks Conservancy will host a Sunday brunch event with live music and food trucks, with proceeds supporting the nonprofit’s mission to “connect with their parks and together create stunning public spaces and a strong community.” (Image from Charleston Parks Conservancy)
