Charlie’s Place

The 2026 Horry County Museum Documentary Film Series continues with Charlie’s Place. This 30-minute film tells the story of an African American nightclub owned by Charlie Fitzgerald in Myrtle Beach. Despite the fact that much of the South was segregated during the time, both blacks and whites were welcomed into the club. This drew unwanted attention from groups like the KKK, who attacked Charlie’s Place in August of 1950.
The film is free to the public and will be shown at 1 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 16, at the Horry County Museum, located at 805 Main Street in Conway.
The Horry County Museum Documentary Film Matinees will continue throughout 2026. For more information, call the Horry County Museum at (843) 915-5320 or e-mail hcg.museum@horrycountysc.gov.
