Culture and the Arts
Our first-time guests are encouraged to visit the Hilton Head Island Welcome Center and the Coastal Discovery Museum of Hilton Head, both located on the right soon after you've crossed the bridge onto the Island on U.S. 278 (William Hilton Parkway). Be sure to visit the Coastal Discovery Museum located on the second floor of the Welcome Center. The museum features historical and ecological exhibits of Hilton Head Island's colorful history and lush natural beauty and varied wildlife. The museum staff can tell you about upcoming environmental lectures and beach walks. You can also browse through the gift shop and make reservations for one of the historic or environmental tours hosted by the Museum.
Organizations of the Cultural Council sponsor many ongoing activities and events. For information or a calendar of events, call the Council at (843) 686-3945. If you're calling from outside the Hilton Head area, be sure to prefix the phone numbers listed below with the new area code: 843.
Located across from the Palmetto Dunes entrance is the Self Family Art Center, a theater for the performing arts. The phone number there is (843)842-ARTS.
