Charleston's art museum since 1905, holding the country's foremost collection of American miniature portraits under a Beaux-Arts dome on Meeting Street.Gibbes Museum of ArtMuseums & Culture · CharlestonPaid 4.7The Gibbes has been Charleston's art museum since 1905, and its collection follows the city rather than the century, running from colonial portraits to work made a few streets away this year. It is best known for American miniature portraits, painted small enough to be carried in a pocket. A recent renovation opened the top floor to daylight and put working artist studios where storage used to be.
