Museum Matinee: PBS Film Series Rebels & Redcoats: The War Moves South
to
The Horry County Museum 805 Main Street, Conway, South Carolina 29526
The 2023 Horry County Museum Documentary Film Series continues with the PBS Film Series Rebels & Redcoats: The War Moves South. In the third installment of the series, we see the British open a new front in the southern colonies. They win a series of victories against American and French forces, and find a new army of recruits amongst former slaves. Thousands of African Americans join the British in the expectation of freedom. The war in the south is an often untold story of a savage war of partisans, border raids and guerilla style skirmishing.
The film is free to the public and will be shown at 1 p.m., Wednesday, Aug. 16, at the Horry County Museum, located at 805 Main Street in Conway.
The Horry County Museum Documentary Film Matinees will continue throughout 2023. For more information, call the Horry County Museum at (843) 915-5320 or e-mail hcgmuseum@horrycountysc.gov.
