Kiawah Arts Council: New Venue and Reservation Process

The Kiawah Arts Council is excited to partner with Seafields to present our beloved Piano Bars and Art Film Series at their beautiful new facility on Kiawah Island. These events remain free and open to the public — however, because seating is limited, you must now reserve a free ticket in advance with KiawahArts online at Eventbrite. Moving forward, all reservations will need to be made online in the new format. No pre-existing reservations are being held for upcoming events.

Please do not contact Seafields about these events.

How to reserve your seat (it’s easy and free):

When reservations open (about one week before each event), we will share a QR code and a link to the Eventbrite page.
Use your smartphone camera to scan the QR code on a poster.
Click here for Piano Bar and Film Series signups.
Select the event and click “Reserve a Spot”.
Enter your name and email address, and number of attendees in your party, then click “Register”.
You will receive a confirmation email. This means your seat is secured.

Get Ready for RiverDogs Baseball

It’s time to play ball! The Charleston RiverDogs will open the gates to fans for home opening night on Thursday, April 2, 2026, at 7:05 pm at “The Joe” when they welcome the Myrtle Beach Pelicans to the Holy City. Plan to come out and cheer on the RiverDogs baseball team!

The RiverDogs, long known for the fun and value delivered through weekly promotions like Thirsty Thursday and Fireworks Fridays, are taking things a step further in celebration of America’s 250th birthday with a brand-new slate of night-of-the-week promotions in 2026. For the first time, the team will host Wiener Wednesdays for all Wednesday evening games, when fans can get two hot dogs for just 50 cents, and leveled-up Dog Day Tuesdays feature 2-for-1 tickets and a dog-themed t-shirt giveaway each week.

It’s all part of the team’s 66 home game calendar at Joseph P. Riley, Jr. Park, themed “Land of the free, Home of the fun,” which kicks off on April 2nd’s Opening Night.

For tickets and the 2026 schedule click here.

The Charleston RiverDogs are the Single-A Affiliate of the Tampa Bay Rays. They play in the Joseph P. Riley Stadium, also known as “The Joe”, which sits near the Ashley River and catches the breezes from the river and adjoining marshland. It has been rated one of the best stadiums in the minor league and collegiate levels. (The Citadel baseball team plays there as well.)

SINHG Program February 12: Andy Johnson and the Bob White Quail

Andy Johnson and the Bob White Quail

Where: Seabrook Island Lake House
When: February 12, 2026
Time: Light refreshments at 6:30 pm, program starts at 7:00 pm

Please join us as we welcome Andy Johnston to our February 12 Evening Event. After his retirement as a pharmacist, he has worked tirelessly to restore a 350-acre tract of land to the old South Carolina habitat.

The primary goal of the habitat is to help bring back the Bob White Quail (Colinus virginianus). Progress is being made and with his efforts and that of many, many others, the very recognizable whistle, “bob-WHITE” or “bob-bob-WHITE”, will hopefully be heard frequently all over South Carolina.

This program is free for current members and just $5 for Seabrook Island residents and their guests.

If you have already made a reservation for the previously scheduled event on February 12 with Jed Christoph, he will still be speaking in March (date and time TBD), and your ticket remains valid for that program.

To attend this program, please click here for a new reservation. If you have already paid for a ticket for the previously-scheduled event with Jed Christoph and would like to attend this program instead, simply sign up for a free member ticket here, and we will credit you at the event.

Thank you to everyone for your support and we apologize for the short notice.
