Explore Some Fine Art In The City

Charleston has an impressively rich community of local artists sprinkled with loads of galleries hosting fine creations by popping artists in the area. You can plan a visit to a few of them and even take some of their unique work home. Contemporary art pieces found in art galleries in the Greater Charleston region make for excellent investments, as well as decorations, so planning a visit at the J. Lily Design art gallery is a great idea if you love art! The gallery was opened in 2015 and it is currently managed by Meghan Trotter, a passionate calligraphy lover who decided to share her love for hand-written memories with anyone interested. In this day and age when writing something by hand sounds obsolete and a thing of the past, seeing gorgeous calligraphy on display can be quite a joy ride for most of us.
