From the Charleston World / Places
Gibbes Museum of Art
See Charleston and the American South through art inside a 1905 Beaux Arts museum. The dome and galleries reward a longer visit, while a brief stop can focus on the building.
Why go
The Gibbes connects art to the city's people and changing identity rather than presenting Charleston only through houses and monuments. Its collection includes work linked to the region from the eighteenth century onward, while the building's dome and formal facade are themselves part of the visit.
