"Penn Center is a very important piece of African American History and its impact on the Gullah Geechee community."
"What a wonderful place with so much history! We had a very friendly, knowledgeable tour guide, and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit."
"Hidden gem on St Helena island. Learn about Gullah culture and Reconstruction here. National Parks Service also has info on the grounds about Reconstruction. Unable to take photos inside Penn Center but able to take photos of the grounds and historical buildings."
"It was closed on Thanksgiving but we were able to walk around. It was emotional to see a little bit of history. I am very grateful for the individuals who made it possible to educate my people back then. The negative part of history mustn't repeat itself."
