The kids who visit the Children's Museum of the Lowcountry are highly encouraged to reach out and touch whatever catches their interest. This attraction is a truly inviting place that welcomes curious minds and hands that aren't afraid to grab hold of various exhibits to get a better look at how it all is put together. The children are welcome to explore a castle, dig in the garden, get wet with waterworks and even experience what it's like to be on a shrimping boat! There are always special classes and presentations scheduled, so check back regularly, and bring your little ones for a museum visit they will never forget.
If you feel like having a few drinks with some friends but don't want to get too dressed up, head to Moe's Crosstown Tavern for a causally cool evening of Charleston nightlife. Moe's is everything a neighborhood watering hole should be, featuring 20 choices of ice cold beer, a great extended happy hour and a menu full of tasty items that features their excellent wings and gourmet burgers. Come in for a while, and you'll find that Moe's is one of those special places where everybody will know your name before too long.
If the heat is getting to be too much for you, cool off in style at Charleston's Splash Zone. This water attraction features both tube-style and open, 200-foot slides while also providing a children's Caribbean play area with slides, wheels and sprays that are more suited to the park's younger visitors. If you prefer to just lounge and enjoy the scenery, float along the 500-foot lazy river which offers some unexpected fun with sprays and a big waterfall along the wet and wild route.
At the Redux Contemporary Art Center, you're the star! The nonprofit organization constantly strives to foster the creativity that lives in everyone by continuously offering diverse exhibitions as well as classes and various programs that will stir the inner artist in everyone who visits. Ideally, the staff and management of the Redux would like to display everyone's work in their galleries, but whether that comes to pass or not, they are happy to offer you a place where inspiration and creativity harmoniously coexist.
