Franklin G. Burroughs-Simeon B. Chapin Art Museum
Myrtle Beach Art Museum
A free art museum housed in an old seaside villa, showing works by artists from South Carolina and the wider Southeast.
The Myrtle Beach Art Museum occupies a seaside villa built in 1924 on the southern oceanfront, directly facing the beach and Springmaid Pier. It exhibits contemporary art, photography, children's art programs and works by Lowcountry artists, with exhibitions changing regularly. Admission is free, though donations are welcome. The museum is small, so about an hour is enough to see it, which makes it a good choice on a rainy day or when you want to avoid the crowds.
Opening hours
Tue–Sun approx. 10:00–16:00
