McKissick Museum

  The McKissick Museum, a Works Progress Administration project on the campus of the University of South Carolina, was built in 1939 as a library and became the museum in 1984. It also houses the university’s visitor center so finding all of the exhibit spaces is a bit confusing. The galleries are small and feature changing exhibits from the museum’s collections, works from southern artists, and items from the university’s large natural history collection. We enjoyed the folk art exhibit the most.

    

  The museum is accessible.

  Metered parking is available street side on Bull and Pendleton Streets. We had to circle the blocks a few times before finding a space. The sidewalks and curb cuts are in good condition. Museum  33.99879, -81.02716
