Join Coastal Heritage Society for its annual fundraising event, Art & Oysters, at Pin Point Heritage Museum, located at 9924 Pin Point Avenue in Savannah.

The event brings together some of the region’s most talented artists and highlights the historical culture of the Gullah-Geechee community of coastal Georgia. Art & Oysters features a silent auction to showcase the original artwork of the artists’ own stories of life on the coast and the deep-rooted traditions of the Lowcountry.

Attendees of Art & Oysters will also enjoy authentic local cuisine and lively music. All proceeds from the event directly benefit Coastal Heritage Society’s six museums and mission of education and preservation in the community.

Admission is $125 for non-members or $100 for CHS members. Sponsorship opportunities are available for the event starting at $1,000. To inquire about sponsorships, please email development@chsgeorgia.org.

Pin Point Heritage Museum is located in the former A.S. Varn & Son Oyster and Crab Factory nestled on the banks of Moon River. Guests can develop an understanding of the historical experience of growing up in Pin Point, a community founded by formerly enslaved African Americans and their descendants in the 1890s.

The museum focuses on religion, language, food, and more, featuring the stories of residents who grew up in this small, close-knit community.
