On Wednesday, March 11 at 10:00 a.m. at the Georgetown Library (405 Cleland Street, Georgetown, SC 29440), “A Glorious Cause” presentations begin with national award-winning storyteller Tim Lowry inviting us into a typical colonial parlor to enjoy games and dances popular during the period. Lowry will also share inspiring stories of patriot resistance in the South Carolina Lowcountry, including the amazing tale of Rebecca Motte.

The Georgetown County Library (GCL) will host a series of 20 public educational programs and exhibits as part of “A Glorious Cause: South Carolina and the American Revolution: A Public History Initiative of the Georgetown County Library.” The programs, which will be free and open to the public, will take place at each of GCL’s 5 facilities across Georgetown County from March 2026 through June 2026. The project is made possible by a $39,300 Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) administered by the South Carolina State Library (SCSL).
