Gibbes Museum of Art features the work of prominent national and international artists. Objects in each medium illustrate the history of Charleston as an important colonial and antebellum city. There also are archives containing the history of the Carolina Art Association, founded in 1858. The museum store offers a wide range of gifts, books, note cards, prints, and jewelry.
