Old Slave Mart Museum Celebrates Black History Month By Opening on Sundays
In honor of Black History Month, the Old Slave Mart Museum will be open 1 pm to 5 pm on Sundays in February. This is in addition to their regular Monday through Saturday schedule of 9 am to 5 pm.
The only known building used as a slave auction gallery in South Carolina still in existence, the Old Slave Mart, located at 6 Chalmers Street, was once part of a complex of buildings known as Ryan’s Mart that occupied the land between Chalmers and Queen Streets. Owned and operated by the City of Charleston, the Old Slave Mart Museum recounts the story of Charleston’s role in the inter-state slave trade. Admission to the museum is $8 for adults and $5 for seniors, students, teachers and military personnel.
Due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, admission to the museum is restricted to 25 visitors per hour and all staff and visitors must wear a face covering and practice social distancing.
