250

250 commemorates the 250th anniversary of the United States. The collection features works by local, American, and immigrant artists, reflecting the diverse voices and experiences that have shaped the nation’s artistic landscape.

While the pieces are not necessarily patriotic in subject matter, the exhibition serves as a celebration of the creativity, perspectives, and cultural contributions of artists from all walks of life. Together, these works highlight the rich diversity that has helped define the art world as we know it today.

The exhibition includes pieces inspired by Charleston, as well as works that capture the animals, natural beauty, and cultural heritage that are woven into the American experience.
