Great local history museum and great gift shop. Excellent prices for local sweetgrass baskets.

I was surprised to stumble onto this museum on my recent visit to Georgetown. This is a town treasure, and I learned a lot about the history of Georgetown. The people working/volunteering in the museum and gift shop are welcoming and friendly. My main complaint is that there was very little emphasis or space dedicated to the role of Black people in the community, other than a small corner exhibit about the history of the rice industry, and a brief mention of a Black minister. Most of the museum is devoted to white people (military history, businesses, tourism from the northern states, and so forth). There was little acknowledgement of the human rights abuses that allowed this town to develop. For this reason, I found the museum limited and inaccurate. It could be called Georgetown County Museum About White People. Still, I recommend the museum; it is informative and provides a certain perspective about an old, old town.
