In an effort to build awareness and connection with Gullah Geechee artists and communities, The SC Arts Commission has partnered with the Gullah Geechee Cultural Heritage Corridor Commission. Through this partnership, the Arts Commission has created an initiative to recognize the distinct artistic contributions of the descendants of formerly enslaved people in South Carolina. These descendants are called Gullah Geechee, and their cultural expressions are expansive—from art, music and spirituality to foodways, education and more. DID YOU LIKE THIS STORY?
