SUMMARY:Horry County Museum Lecture Series: Auction Houses\, Attempted Co-ops\, and Allotments: The Impact of Flue-Cured Tobacco on Horry County\, SC
DESCRIPTION:After the rise of the boll weevil made cotton crops unstable\, flue-cured tobacco became the main cash crop of Horry County. This presentation focuses on the impact of the auction system and the ways in which farmers and buyers attempted to push the prices in their favor. Join us on June 6th at 1 pm to learn more about the impact of flue-cured tobacco with Horry County Museum Curator Abigail Geedy. \nAbby was born and raised in south-central Pennsylvania and moved to South Carolina for college in 2012. She has a Bachelor’s and Master’s Degree in Anthropology and a Graduate Certificate of Museum Management from the University of South Carolina. She began volunteering in museums in 2011 and worked in curation at the South Carolina Institute of Archaeology and Anthropology for 5 years before joining the Horry County Museum as a Technical Assistant in 2020. She then moved into the role of Curator in 2022. She has previously worked as an intern or volunteer at the York County Heritage Trust in York\, PA\, the Pennsylvania State Museum in Harrisburg\, PA and McKissick Museum in Columbia\, SC. \nThe program will be held 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.
