Franklin G. Burroughs - Simeon B. Chapin Art Museum, Art museum on South Ocean Boulevard, Myrtle Beach, United States.
The Franklin G. Burroughs - Simeon B. Chapin Art Museum is an art institution located on South Ocean Boulevard in Myrtle Beach featuring eleven distinct galleries across multiple floors. The spaces display paintings, sculptures, photographs, and other artworks spanning various styles and periods.
The museum was established in 1997 as the first dedicated art institution in Myrtle Beach. Its creation addressed a significant cultural need in South Carolina's coastal region at that time.
The museum features regular exhibitions showcasing regional artists from the Carolinas alongside national and international works. These rotating displays offer visitors insight into different artistic perspectives and creative traditions throughout the year.
The museum offers free admission daily and provides guided tours, educational programs, and art workshops for visitors of all ages. These activities run regularly throughout the year, making it worth visiting at different times.
The eleven gallery spaces are completely transformed multiple times per year with different collections. This allows visitors to experience entirely new exhibitions on repeat visits without seeing the same displays.
