Collection Connections | A Visual Exploration of Southern Heritage is an exhibition of approximately 40 works from the Art Museum’s rich permanent collections, including antique maps and historical prints, works on paper by Southern artists, including William H. Clarke, Cassandra Gillens and Jonathan Green, fabric quilts and photographs. Using Southern-history-themed works of art from our collections, the exhibition uses the visual arts to teach and explore the history and culture of South Carolina and our entire region and is designed for both school students and adults alike.
