“It’s how we communicate our stories to each other – whether that’s through art, literature, writing, or history.” Listen as Tayler Simon describes what the humanities mean to her. Tayler is the founder of @liberationislit , a bookstore that aims to spark collective action for liberation and community building among readers and book lovers by promoting stories from intersectional experiences. #HumanitiesForEveryone #SCHumanities #StoriesOfSC #SCVoices #CultureConnects #CommunityConversations #StoriesThatConnectUs

The humanities aren’t just for classrooms or museums. They’re for everyone. They live in family stories, local traditions, neighborhood festivals, historic landmarks, and community conversations. The humanities help us explore the human experience, ask big questions, learn from the past, and connect us across generations. #HumanitiesForEveryone #SCHumanities #StoriesOfSC #SCVoices #CultureConnects #CommunityConversations #StoriesThatConnectUs

Thank You, South Carolina!💙 Because of your generosity during Midlands Gives, SC Humanities raised $4,835 to support programs and opportunities that bring communities together through stories, culture, and conversation across South Carolina. This year, we welcomed even more donors—including new first-time supporters—and successfully met our matching gift challenge thanks to your incredible support. Every gift, share, and act of encouragement helps make experiences like the upcoming @smithsonian Museum on Main Street exhibition “Americans” possible in communities across our state. Together, we are uplifting the stories of South Carolina—who we are, where we came from, and where we are going. We are grateful for your support and belief in the power of the humanities. @cccf_midlands @sitesexhibitions #MidlandsGives #SCHumanities #CommunityImpact
