2nd Sunday on King Street in July
It’s Charleston, it’s hot, and we love it! At our much loved 2nd Sunday event this month shops, galleries, street vendors and food make street magic from noon to 5 pm.
Can you book a Safari, buy a dress and fill a Toppl?
People come to 2nd Sunday to experience Charleston’s “Main Street”, unobstructed by the usual vehicles parked at the curb and pedestrians trying to saunter side by side on the sidewalk.
But wait; there’s more! A lobster, an oyster, a little shot of Botox, a candle, a jar of honey, a cold local beer, a sweet globe of cotton candy, clothes, shoes, a hat, and art, art, art.
It’s why we love 2nd Sunday! See you there. Noon - 5:00.

This month’s chapter will feature Smudge, and The V-Tones of Charleston, just two of musical surprises popping up for our 2nd Sunday brand of fun.
Hungry? There are lobster rolls waiting at &Lobster at Beaufain Street and A.W. Shucks on Lower King. Lib’s Diner always has fresh, inventive takes on classics, and KJ Style BBQ at Hasell Street attracts a line the minute he sets up.
Art your thing? Lauren and Rebecca and Tate are on the bricks, joined by other creatives inspired by and inspiring Charleston’s thriving art scene.
Shopping for Mom, fashion for you. Pick up a pair of Maui Jim’s at Tommy Bahama, outside Charleston Place. Cross the street for Spartina 449. Inspired by one of the few remaining unspoiled treasures, Daufuskie Island, South Carolina, Spartina 449 embodies the true beauty and spririt of Island Living. Look for Raine and Grace Candles nearby, or follow your nose to lovely candle scents in innovative packaging.
