This little museum is a gem. Not too big or too small. Interesting exhibits. Appealing to all ages, especially when special exhibits- such as the author Jan Brett's works.
This is a very well organized museum that proved to be a great way to spend a couple of hours. Not being from North Carolina, I knew nothing about Upcounty History - wow, I learned a lot here! I was very surprised by how nice it was - the pictures posted here don't really do it justice.
When people ask me about local venues to hold an event, Upcountry History Museum in always on my list of recommendations. In fact, when I wanted to have a party to launch my non-profit, we held it here. #LoveLocalUpstate
I decided to take my four kids to the seasonal pirate/treasure exhibit. I was a little reluctant at first. I did not know if the exhibit would be stimulating enough to entertain my kids, but I was pleasantly surprised. My children loved it. There was so much for them to do. They were able to mine for fools gold and shoot miniature canyons. I would recommend visiting the museum.
Worth the time. A real look into the regions past. Took brother Fromm PA there and he thoroughly enjoyed it.
Anyone who has a passion for American History should go there. You will not be disappointed. I spent over three hours in there.
Love the lay out of the museum, the history and the fantastic exhibits. They really take care in presenting the real history of that area of South Carolina. Well worth your time . Be sure and go to this museum while in Greenville.
Attended the SEAC 2014 Reception here last week. The exhibits are wonderful - both for adults and children! Very well laid out and interesting museum, would love to go back!
This wonderful little museum has excellent displays that depict life in the upstate. Being from the north it is always interesting hearing from an area where slavery was a way of life.
The permanent exhibits are enough to keep you coming back, with much information and interactive exhibits tell of the history and interesting facts about our past. Really like some of the additional exhibits that are there for a limited time. A fun place to visit.
