The Horry County Museum and The AVX Foundation present a lecture by Rodger Stroup on Saturday, January 7th, on themes in South Carolina’s history.
This presentation traces some of the major subjects in South Carolina’s history including the development of the state’s seal and symbols, the sense of independence that evolved during the colonial era and manifested itself in the state seceding from the Union in 1860 and the struggle to incorporate a large African American population into the mainstream of the state’s development. We will also trace the story of the state’s ongoing support for our military.
The program will begin at 1 pm in the McCown Auditorium located at 805 Main Street, Conway SC. This event is free and open to the public. For more information, call 843-915-5320 or email hcgmuseum@horrycounty.org. To view a full list of programs, visit our website at www.horrycountymuseum.org.
