Georgetown Art Walk 2026

Historic Georgetown Clock Tower

This charming town, nestled in the heart of the South Carolina Lowcountry, holds the distinction of being the state’s third oldest city. Rich in history and Southern charm, it is uniquely situated at the confluence of five rivers—the Sampit, the Great and Small Pee Dee, the Black River, and the Waccamaw. Its prime location between two major destinations—just 60 miles north of historic Charleston and 30 miles south of the bustling resort city of Myrtle Beach—makes it a serene yet accessible getaway.

Georgetown ArtWalk 2026 is an exciting event featuring a juried fine art show held in the historic business district of Georgetown, South Carolina, providing a picturesque backdrop for this celebration of artistic endeavors.
