EVENT DESCRIPTION

The next event will be held on Sunday October 22, 2023, 1:30pm – 5:30pm and will feature musical performances on historic porches on Hampton Avenue, Pinckney Street, and Lloyd Street in the Hampton-Pinckney neighborhood.  The event is free and open to the community. 

EVENT PURPOSE

The purpose of this event is to highlight the array of local musical talent and historic architecture in Greenville while enjoying Greenville’s first National Historic District – Hampton-Pinckney Historical Preservation Area. The Hampton-Pinckney Historic District has a legacy of successful community events which bring people together – in its third year, it is building upon our success and experience.

All profits from the event are used to enhance the historical heritage of the Hampton-Pinckney area. Thanks to our generous sponsors, the Hampton-Pinckney Porchfest organizers are pleased to announce the approval by the South Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) of three historic markers with two more under review. Please check back for further information regarding events for the anticipated installations and more details.
