Obviously, this is no classical building, and has recently been completed. The question to our panel this issue is not only where is it, but why was this building designed this way. Send in your thoughts to elliott@brack.net and be sure to include your hometown.
The last Mystery Photo (above) was so difficult that GwinnettForum stumped all of the regular contributors. This scene is from the Gibbes Museum of Art in Charleston, S.C., looking out at the back garden from the second floor. If you haven’t visited the Gibbes Museum, it is a classical building with one of the foremost collection of American art that incorporates the story of Charleston. It opened in 1905 to rave national reviews of the power of art to inspire, heal, revel in experiences, and nourish souls. Its collections are superb. Its size is not overpowering, making a trip to the museum enjoyable. The Gibbes presented the first formal exhibition of the Guggenheim collection in 1936. One of its current exhibits is “Realm of the Spirit: Solomon R. Guggenheim Collections.”
DAR in Lawrenceville provides gifts to S.C. school for 28th year
Before Christmas, the Philadelphia Winn Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution hosted its 28th Tamassee Luncheon at the Lawrenceville First Baptist Church. There were approximately 100 in attendance. The children from four Tamassee cottages submitted their Christmas “wish lists” to the Chapter. Regent Kitty Watters, along with Santa, is shown on stage with gifts. The Tamassee, S.C. DAR School was founded in 1919 by the Daughters of the American Revolution to provide an education to children in the rural Appalachian Mountains. The school survives and thrives to this day; now the school’s mission is to support children and families in crisis through residential, educational, and outreach services.
