Museum Documentary Film Series continues with "Waves of Change: The Story of Myrtle Beach, SC"

The 2021 Horry County Museum Documentary Film Series continues with "Waves of Change: The Story of Myrtle Beach, SC." Written and produced by Barbara Stokes, this series follows almost a century in the history, development and people of the sleepy beach village that became a national tourist destination.

It explores how the community of Myrtle Beach has dealt with two major goals: to bring people to the beach and to build a hometown. The film also explores some of the major setbacks to development as well as the forces and people that propelled its growth. And it discusses the next wave of change-continued increase in growth and the challenges that come with that growth.

The film is free to the public and will be shown Wednesday, July 14, 1 p.m., at the Horry County Museum, located at 805 Main Street in Conway.

The Horry County Museum Documentary Film Matinees will continue throughout 2021. For a full list of films, visit our website at horrycountymuseum.org.
