Connecting Collections and Communities

The Gullah Geechee Digital Project connects historic collections to contemporary communities. We are working to showcase the wide diversity of stories, artifacts, and connections present within our Gullah Geechee heritage.

Get Involved

While our project covers just five communities in South Carolina, we're excited to add more. If you have a collection that you would like to connect with our network or feature on our website, reach out to us.
