Susan Sully has authored and professionally photographed many books on architecture and design. She will share her discoveries about Charleston’s particular design language, its history, and how it perpetuates today as shown in her gorgeous book, The Allure of Charleston. This book illustrates some of our favorite, grand, and lavish interiors in the Holy City.
The Allure of Charleston is available for purchase from HCF’s Gift Shop. Book signing will follow lecture.
Since 1947 the Annual Festival of Houses and Gardens has been the Foundation’s largest fundraiser and educational tool and has provided intimate glimpses into some of the most beautiful homes and gardens in Charleston, SC. The Festival’s Food for Thought Lecture Series is a fan-favorite and this year the speakers and topics range from Charleston’s gardens and alluring interiors to Natural Disasters in the Lowcountry and everything in-between. Each lecture will be held atop Charleston’s High Battery at the Captain James Missroon house Community Room with a light lunch provided by Caviar and Bananas.
