Join Telfair Museum - "Community in Conversation: Carrying African American Basket Traditions."

How do we keep a tradition alive? Through the people who practice it, the knowledge they share, and the stories passed from one generation to the next.

This November, Telfair Museums brings together basketmakers, scholars, educators, and community members for ‘Community in Conversation: Carrying African American Basket Traditions.’

Across three days, explore the history, artistry, and continuing evolution of African American basketmaking through panel discussions, workshops, a lecture and more!

Join us November 5–7 at the Jepson Center and Telfair Academy as we celebrate a tradition woven deeply into the cultural fabric of the Lowcountry.

Free and open to the public, with select programs requiring separate registration.

Gullah heritage isn't just about the past—it’s a living bridge to West Africa, and no one has done more to strengthen that connection than Emory Campbell.

A native of Hilton Head Island, Campbell grew up immersed in the Gullah community at a time when the culture was often misunderstood or overlooked. Rather than leaving his roots behind, he used his education in environmental engineering to fight for land preservation and the protection of the Sea Islands from over-development.

In 1989, Campbell made international history by leading the "Gullah Homecoming" to Sierra Leone. This historic journey proved the undeniable link between the Gullah people and their ancestors, re-establishing a bond that had been severed for centuries.

As the longtime Executive Director of the Penn Center and the first chairman of the Gullah Geechee Cultural Heritage Corridor Commission, Emory Campbell has ensured that Bluffton history and the broader Gullah story are recognized on a national stage.

At the Bluffton Gullah Cultural Heritage Center, we honor "Culture Keepers" like Emory Campbell who remind us that our roots go deep and our stories deserve to be heard across the globe.
