A golden exhibit If you're coming to Columbia for a Gamecocks football game or the South Carolina State Fair, plan to visit the South Carolina State Museum to see the new exhibit Tutankhamun: Return of the King. You'll view more than 100 stunning replicas of the original treasures of King Tut, including jewelry, golden shrines and King Tut's funerary mask. The exhibit will be there until March, but don't delay. Southern plantation Cooler days are ahead and it will be a perfect time to stroll the grounds of one of South Carolina's historic plantations – Redcliffe Plantation in Beech Island. A barn and two slave cabins are on the property along with the mansion. Admission to the plantation is free, you only pay for a tour of the house museum, built between 1857-1859. Learn more about this Southern plantation. Arts & crafts celebration Where can you find distinctive arts and crafts, live music, seafood and barbecue by the beach?
