Charleston residents can tell you the city has an abundance of art galleries. This is particularly true in Charleston's historic French Quarter district. There you can find artwork and fine art photography at a number of locations. Charleston Artists Guild, started in 1953, is dedicated to the practice, teaching and recognition of Fine Arts in Greater Charleston. They often oversee a multitude of events and workshops during the year. Another area of art that Charleston is known for are sweetgrass baskets. In fact, sweetgrass baskets are a nationally recognized art form with examples in the Museum of American History at the Smithsonian Institution.
