Gibbes Museum of Art
Gibbes Museum of Art Review
Housed in a beautiful Beaux Arts building, this museum boasts a collection of 10,000 works, principally American with a local connection. Each year there are a dozen special exhibitions, often of contemporary art. The museum shop is exceptional, with artsy, Charlestonian gifts.

bachslunch, from US
A small but charming art museum with a very good collection containing a few works by name artists (Robert Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns, Benjamin West, Gilbert Stuart). But the works by lesser-knowns are of high quality, including several miniatures, prints, and drawings. A good bit of the work here has a local connection, either painted by a Charleston artist or depicting something/someone from the city. Well worth a visit.
