Area Attractions - Art Charleston 2025 (April 23-27)

 Art and Fashion collide for this year's Art Charleston 2025 (April 23-27). Hotel reservations are filling up quickly for tourists this time of year. The festival's theme is the intersection of fashion, design and art. 

-- The five-day visual arts festival, presented by the Gibbes Museum of Art features street fairs, art tours, fashion runway shows, artist studio visits, exhibitions, meet-the-artist events, panel discussions, and more. 

-- Rarely seen fashions by some of the world’s leading designers, including Gucci, Alexander McQueen, and Comme des Garcons . . . presented alongside artworks by Joan Mitchell, Romare Bearden, Jasper Johns, Barkley Hendricks, and more.

Proceeds from this fundraiser benefit the Gibbes Museum’s year-round education initiatives, school groups, support for artists, exhibitions and community art programs.
