The South Carolina Historical Society is a private, nonprofit museum and historical organization focused on collecting, preserving, and sharing the stories of all South Carolinians. Its work encompasses both major historical events and everyday moments to promote visibility, understanding, engagement, and conversation about the state's past. Founded in 1855 and based in Charleston, the Society bills itself as the sole statewide private nonprofit historical organization and aims to be the preeminent interpreter of this history for a broad audience. Its programs are designed for a broad audience, and recent activity includes the launch of a Winter Lecture Series in 2023. The organization maintains its operations from Charleston while pursuing statewide engagement with South Carolina's history.
