Original Gullah Festival

From Original Gullah Festival Website:

The Gullah Festival was established to honor and recreate the atmosphere of a celebration called Decoration Day, now named, Memorial Day. As a result, every year during the festival weekend, there is a Decoration Day Play to commemorate the historic event. The Festival provides a unique family friendly cultural experience for local, national and international attendees of over 35,000 during the 3 day event. For over 30 years, we have been celebrating our rich history. With your support, we will continue to share the Gullah experience.

In the tradition of its founders, the festival continues to focus on educating the masses about the Gullah culture. Lest We Forget is a part of the festival where there are panel discussions and presentations on heritage. Audience members have an opportunity to become involved by asking questions and participating in meaningful discussions about our past, how it directly relates to our present and how it will affect our future. All ages are welcome.
