Our Story
Since 2015, we’ve grown our retail business more than fivefold, and there has never been a better time to support local makers. When you shop at The Preservation Society of Charleston Shop, your support goes far beyond our mission and advocacy work. This year alone, The PSC Shop will put over $750,000 back into the local makers and craftsmen community.
Our partnership with local makers fits seamlessly with our mission – committing us to the quality of life of the Charleston community – and our storefront at 147 King Street brings exposure of these craftsmen to the bustling corner of King and Queen streets. As is the case with Brackish, Smithey Ironware Co., Burls & Steel, and J. Stark, The PSC Shop serves as the top national retailer for some of the most esteemed local brands.
We’re thankful for our members and local customers who make The Shop a primary destination for regional literature, apparel and accessories, and even gourmet grocery items! Customers from out-of-town return home with genuine pieces of Charleston craftsmanship, and, in turn, share the work of our community with the world.
We invite you to our shop at 147 King Street - open daily between 10 AM and 5 PM. As a member of the Preservation Society, you receive 10% off your purchase and purchases are always tax free. You can also place a phone order for curbside pickup or order online for shipping.
