SUMMARY:Horry County Museum Lecture Series: The South Carolina Dispensary System and Prohibition
DESCRIPTION:Join Horry County Museum’s Curator\, Abigail Geedy\, on September 20th at 1 PM as she discusses the South Carolina Dispensary System and Prohibition in the state. By the early 1890s\, many assumed South Carolina was on the verge of declaring prohibition\, but in 1892 the dispensary system passed as an alternative. It wouldn’t be until multiple versions of the dispensary system fell out of favor that state prohibition was passed in 1915\, followed not far after by Federal Prohibition. This talk discusses an overview of the history and controversies of the dispensary system and state and federal prohibition with a focus on Horry County’s thoughts and reactions. \nAbigail Geedy 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 begin at 1:00 pm on September 20th 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 hcg.museum@horrycountysc.gov.

SUMMARY:Barbecue & Homecooking: Food That Makes You Smile
DESCRIPTION:The 2025 Horry County Museum Documentary Film Series continues with Barbecue & Homecooking: Food That Makes You Smile. This documentary was made to promote folklore and folklife experiences visitors might have in the economically depressed four-counties of the Region III SC National Heritage Corridor.

They maintain today’s recipes with ingredients and cooking methods learned at the side of mothers\, fathers\, aunts\, uncles or grandparents in these farming communities. Music by South Carolina roots musicians moves the viewer along as they hit the road with filmmaker Stan Woodward and the folklorist from McKissick Museum as they ‘root-out’ these sites. \nThe film is free to the public and will be shown at 1:00 PM\, Wednesday\, August 20th\, at the Horry County Museum\, located at 805 Main Street in Conway. \nThe Horry County Museum Documentary Film Matinees will continue throughout 2025.
