Since the 1920s, Charleston’s communities have continuously put forth concerted efforts to both define and preserve the city’s historic merit. Charleston is a city not without its share of losses, but by looking in all the right places, many of its secrets are soon revealed. Join celebrated author and historian, Leigh Handal, for a look at "Lost Charleston" going back all the way to the dawn of photography in the 1860s, Leigh will discuss the treasures lost and the secrets left behind.
Light bites will be served.

Historic Charleston Foundation advocates for a future for Charleston that honors and protects its people, places, culture, and community.
As the Foundation’s largest annual fundraiser, the net proceeds from ticket sales and donations from patrons of The Charleston Festival provide HCF with critical resources needed to effectively protect one of our nation’s most treasured historic places. This support allows us to use our resources where and when they are most needed to affect successful outcomes against the challenges facing the Charleston community and to provide important educational opportunities for students of all ages. Thank you for your support!
