Also called Black Bike Week, this event is one of the largest events for this historic African American community in the Myrtle Beach area.

Once partnered with the local cultural center, the Atlantic Beach Black Pearl Cultural Heritage Festival and Bikefest was born.
If this is your first Atlantic Beach Memorial Day Bikefest, you can expect a weekend filled with food, drinks, and motorcycles as far as the eye can see. Vendor tents line the streets of Atlantic Beach, offering delicious street food, themed merchandise, and other goods from local shops. Concerts, live shows, and contests entertain guests during the day. Bars, lounges, and restaurants host parties to keep the rally going even when the sun goes down.

Carolina Mountains to the Shore
2025-09-04 11:00 - 16:00 | Black Creek Arts 116 W College Ave, Hartsville, SC 29550, USA, Florence
My art is about creating and learning with a focus on the interplay of colors, and the creating of texture. I have been working in three main areas concurrently.The first area derives inspiration from nature. Beauty in nature is found everywhere. I love the ebb and flow of water as it moves through rivers, oceans, and marshes, the graceful movements of birds and the lush beauty of plants and foliage. Also appealing to me is the vast array of blues and greens in nature and how they interplay with other colors. My camera is a constant companion to capture elements of nature that inspire me. Some of these images provide focal points or backgrounds that I interpret with cloth, thread and texture.The second area is inspired by traditional geometric designs. I enjoy the interplay of color and line and its rhythmic repetition across my quilt. I particularly like the process of choosing a large number of fabrics and colors. The drafting and construction stages can present new challenges for myself.The third body of work involves creating complex cloth through application of dye, paint and embellishment, such as fabric overlay or manipulation and the application of non-fiber material. These pieces are often whole cloth and the images organic with a focus on the interplay of color and creating of texture.-Kathryn WestonThis exhibit is FREE, and the public is encouraged to attend.This exhibit will be on display until September 4, 2025.
