Luncheon Lecture: Historic Charleston Foundation

June 4, 2021 @ 11:30 am - 1:00 pm

$55

While acclaimed Charleston artist Alice Ravenel Huger Smith is best known for her beautiful watercolors of the Lowcountry, she also helped spark Charleston’s historic preservation movement. Join authors Dwight McInvaill, Caroline Palmer and Anne Tinker for a special presentation of their newly-released book Alice: Alice Ravenel Huger Smith, Charleston Renaissance Artist. This fascinating and personal story, told by the artist’s friends and family, will feature some of Alice’s photos and artwork, many of which are from private collections. A book signing will follow.

Food for Thought Luncheon Lecture Series:
This is an event in the Food for Thought Luncheon Lecture Series. The luncheon lecture series takes place in an informal setting at the historic Captain James Missroon House, c. 1808. Join us atop Charleston’s High Battery and enjoy a commanding view of Charleston Harbor and the antebellum mansions along East Battery. Please note there is limited seating capacity as we will be socially distancing.

Participants will enjoy a casual light lunch of salads and sandwiches.
