Beaufort History Museum (BHM) is offering Docent classes to train volunteers who lead Museum tours and serve as community liaisons. In the classes, directed by Docent Educator Lorrie Burleyknoles, participants learn how Beaufort shaped America from the early European settlements to current times.
From the rich history of the William Wigg Barnwell House to the stately architecture of the Verdier House, the story of Beaufort can be found around every corner if you only know where to look.
On Saturday, October 26, Beaufort will honor its newest Americans at Celebrating Citizenship, a public event in the Waterfront Park Pavilion, from 2 – 4 pm.
