Beat the Heat at 2nd Sunday — Tomorrow on King Street!
It's that time again — and we're bringing our special mix of art, shopping, food, and fun to King Street. Since 2010, locals and regional guests have made 2nd Sunday a monthly tradition, and we can't wait to see you there.
We know it's the height of Charleston summer, so this month we're making it easy to enjoy the day and stay cool. Here's your guide to beating the heat while you shop, snack, and soak up the culture.
Cool Down with a Treat! Nothing beats the heat like a scoop, a popsicle or shaved ice. Look for these vendors along the route:
Lowcountry Cone Co.
River Street Sweets
Off Track Ice Cream
King of Pops
Glacé
Lowcountry Lemonade
Christophe Chocolatier
Cool off at 2nd Sunday on King Street
Duck Into the AC
When you need a break from the sun, King Street shops keep it cool inside. And, did you know most King Street stores welcome your dog?
Find Some Shade
Between stops, take a breather under the oaks and awnings at American Gardens. It's a great spot to people-watch, grab a bite, and rest before your next round of shopping.
Cool Art on the Street
This month's artist lineup brings some seriously eye-catching work to the street. Stroll the block and take in pieces from Tate Nation, Rebecca Meixner, Lauren Ridenour and so many fine Charleston artists, — then pop into Reinert Fine Art Gallery and Sculpture Garden for something you won't find anywhere else.
2nd Sunday Cool Room at Richemont Hotel/Two Bit Club
1:00-5:00 pm at 93 Society Street, just steps from King.
2nd Sunday has been a Charleston tradition since 2010, every month, year round (except for that pesky pandemic and a couple nearby hurricanes). Stop in our cool room too ask us anything, meet some local celebs and experience the greatest little hotel and restaurant off King.
Grab some water, wear your sunscreen; we'll see you on the street!
