There's no better place to spend a Sunday afternoon than on one of the Top 10 Shopping Streets in all of America. And without cars... just people, shopping, outdoor dining and entertainment galore. Just in time for all that holiday shopping.
Join us December 11 from 1:00 to 5:00 PM for 2nd Sunday on King Street when the street is closed from Queen north to Calhoun to all vehicular traffic. Bring out your family, friends and good looking dogs. The weather forecast is for a nice sunny day.
This month's 2nd Sunday soundtrack will feature holiday music, cool jazz and classical works by some of Charleston's most loved musicians. Shrimp City Slim, Sollie "Puddin"
