Meet at the SC Statehouse by the Washington Monument : 1100 Gervais St., Columbia, SC 29208
Designated as the city’s main thoroughfare since the late 18th century, a portion of Columbia’s Main Street is listed in the National Register of Historic Places as the “Columbia Commercial Historic District.” Bounded by the South Carolina State House to the south and Elmwood Avenue to the north, the corridor boasts history and architectural styles spanning three centuries.
All homeschool students are invited to participate in Historic Columbia’s Homeschool Friday programs on the first Friday of the month. Each month’s program is from 10 - 11:30 am and includes hands-on activities while students learn and explore different themes and historic sites with Historic Columbia. Homeschool Friday programs are designed for students of elementary and middle school age levels.
Homeschool Friday is open to families and homeschool groups of less than 10 students. For larger groups, we recommend arranging a separate visit to explore that month's topic. Program participants should gather in the Gift Shop at Robert Mills on the day of the program unless otherwise noted.
The cost is per student, with an accompanying adult free. Homeschool Fridays are $5 for HC members, $6 for non-members and $8 for both members and non-members at the door.
Reservations open on August 5. If you have questions, would like to be on our mailing list, or if you would like to register for the entire year of Homeschool Friday programs, please contact the Education Department at education@historiccolumbia.org or 803.252.1770 x 26.
