WHY IT MATTERS
Features like this show how our destination marketing efforts continue to highlight Hilton Head Island’s history and culture, and it is clearly resonating. National coverage such as the mention of Mitchelville Freedom Park shows that storytelling around our heritage connects with top tier audiences.
“For a history of the region, a short drive to the Historic Mitchelville Freedom Park in Hilton Head is a valuable introduction to a cultural landmark that was once home to America’s first self-governed community of formerly enslaved people. Today, the park includes walking trails, a picnic pavilion, beach access, and Griot’s Corner, where children can enjoy immersive storytelling.” - Condé Nast Traveler
