SUMMARY:Kathryn Hedgepath: Myrtle Beach Movies (1967-2015)
DESCRIPTION:The Horry County Museum presents a program on the movies that were made or premiered in Myrtle Beach\, on Saturday\, March 1st\, at 1:00 PM. Hollywood stars brought big screen magic to the Grand Strand for nearly 50 years. Their works ranged from major studio productions to award-winning independent films. The drama behind those movies and the lives of their filmmakers often rivaled that of the movies themselves. Myrtle Beach History Tours Creator and Narrator\, and the author of the book\, Myrtle Beach Movies\, Kathryn Cox Hedgepath\, will share some behind the scenes stories about those motion pictures that were in theaters from 1967–2015. \nMyrtle Beach native\, Kathryn Cox Hedgepath\, is the creator and narrator of the Myrtle Beach History Trolley and Step-On Tours. She has traveled to forty countries on six continents and uses her experience to convey our local history through a world lens. Kathryn returned home from NYC in 2002 to marry her beloved husband\, Jenks\, after a career in television and publishing (and even worked in Space Shuttle Operations at NASA Headquarters in DC for a semester before starting graduate school at Georgetown University). Her first career job was as Personal Assistant to television icon and wildlife expert\, Jim Fowler\, of Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom fame. Her dad\, Myrtle Beach’s first veterinarian\, arranged the job interview when Jim Fowler spoke at a veterinary conference in Myrtle Beach. She is proud to be able to trace her family history in Horry County back to the Pre-Revolutionary War years\, and enjoys sharing our local history with visitors\, newcomers\, and locals. \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.

SUMMARY:Tina Harr: Every Quilt has a Story
DESCRIPTION:We’re celebrating textiles throughout the month of March at the Horry County Museum! Join us March 4th at 11 AM as local quilter Tina Harr shares the stories behind a variety of quilts. \nA native of the Hudson Valley in New York\, Tina Harr is proud to call Conway her home for over 10 years. Her first sewing experience was with her grandmother making 9 patch blocks the old fashioned way: marking the fabric with a pen and square cut from a cereal box and doing all the cutting with scissors. The quilts they made were tied and a bedsheet was the backing material. \nIn 2000\, Tina joined a quilt group in NY and learned about all the innovations that had happened since the early ’70’s\, rotary cutters\, thick plastic templates……etc.  Being part of the Serendipity Stitchers was something she missed when she first moved to Conway\, and when her friend Patsy Ray told her about the Conway Quilters she joined them in their second year. The things Tina loves most about the group are their charitable endeavors and being part of the Quilts of Valor program. \nThis program is free to the public. The Horry County Museum is located at 805 Main St.\, Conway\, SC 29526. For more information\, call 843-915-5320 or email hcg.museum@horrycountysc.gov .

DESCRIPTION:The 2025 Horry County Museum Documentary Film Series continues with The Baruchs of Hobcaw\, part of the Carolina Stories Series by SCETV. \nIn 1718\, 17\,500 acres of pristine land in Georgetown County became a colonial land grant\, or barony\, from the King of England to one of the Lords Proprietors.

SUMMARY:The History of the American Sewing Machine
DESCRIPTION:We’re celebrating textiles throughout March at the Horry County Museum! Join us March 18th at 1 PM as Sharon Huffstetler shares the history of the American sewing machine. In this lecture\, and hands on experience\, Sharon will discuss the earliest ideas of the sewing machine in America and the men that brought it to life. She’ll also discuss what happened behind the scenes\, including the drama that got us to the sewing machines we know and love today. After the presentation everyone is invited up to see machines from 1848 to the 1960’s. Participants will even be able to sew a few stitches on a hand crank sewing machine from 1881! \nSharon Huffstetler grew up in an antique shop her parents owned in Camden\, SC in the 1990’s to early 2000’s. That upbringing instilled a love for all antiques and especially history. When she got into quilting at the age of 27 it was only a matter of time before she connected her passion for antiques to her newfound hobby. By age 31 she had opened her business and did demonstrations up and down the east coast on her antique hand crank sewing machines. At 32 she took apart her first Featherweight and the rest is history as they say. Now at 36 she owns an Antique and Vintage Quilt Shop just doors down from the building her parents had their antique shop in all those years ago. Sharon has designed and produced 4 rulers for the Featherweight and 3 tools to help those with hand mobility issues to continue to enjoy these fun and precious pieces of history. \nThe program will be 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

DESCRIPTION:We’re celebrating textiles throughout March at the Horry County Museum! Join us on Saturday\, March 22nd at 1 PM as Certified Quilt Appraiser Brenda Grampsas answers questions about the care and storage of quilts.

SUMMARY:G-Man: The Rise & Fall of Melvin Purvis
DESCRIPTION:The 2025 Horry County Museum Documentary Film Series continues with G-Man: The Rise & Fall of Melvin Purvis\, part of the Carolina Stories Series by SCETV. The name\, Melvin Horace Purvis\, to many people today\, means nothing. But it was not so long ago that Purvis was a household name\, and over 260\,000 boys and girls were digging through boxes of Post Toasties breakfast cereal to get their very own decoder rings and Junior G-Man badges. Purvis\, the Timmonsville native with the unassuming name\, skyrocketed to such fame in the 1930s as leader of the FBI team that took down some of the biggest gangsters of his day\, including John Dillinger\, Baby Face Nelson and Pretty Boy Floyd. His death in 1960 is still shrouded in mystery. Was it a suicide\, as first reported? Was it an accidental shooting? Or was there something more sinister behind it? \nThe film is free to the public and will be shown at 1:00 PM\, Wednesday\, March 26th\, at the Horry County Museum\, located at 805 Main Street in Conway. \nThe Horry County Museum Documentary Film Matinees will continue throughout 2025.
