The Hilton Head Island Gullah Celebration has always been a festival of heritage, storytelling, and artistry. This year, we are proud to honor two extraordinary artists whose work embodies the spirit of the Sea Islands and the richness of Gullah Geechee culture.

Throughout the month of February, their works will be featured in special exhibitions and programs as part of the Hilton Head Island Gullah Celebration. Guests will have the opportunity to view, collect, and connect with the art that continues to preserve and uplift the Gullah legacy.
