Outreach

The Avery Research Center seeks to bring content and educators together to help enhance the teaching of African American history and culture within K-12 and higher education. In collaboration with the College of Charleston’s School of Education, the College of Charleston’s Lowcountry Digital Library (LCDL), the Charleston County School District, and other cultural institutions, the Avery Research Center serves as a laboratory to create models and methods of innovative informal education and links to the formal education system.

For more information on our outreach initiatives contact our programming staff here.

MUSEUM TOURS: The Avery Research Center offers self-guided tours Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 1030AM-12PM and 2PM-330PM. For large groups we ask you limit 25 people or fewer per time slot for self-guided tours. Due to staffing shortages Avery will not be offering guided tours to the general public for the remainder of 2023.

ARCHIVES: Researchers must have a consultation BEFORE making a research appointment.
