Throughout the month museums hold special exhibits, artists offer special classes, actors put on special performances, and musicians of every flavor take the stage for special concerts. And throughout the month people from all over visit the city to take it all in. Of course they aren't the only ones in Charleston during the festival.
Some people live there.
Some dart in and out on business. And others, like Lori and me a couple of weeks ago, were there by pure coincidence. Headed somewhere else nearby, the Charleston airport was the cheaper of two alternatives, and an attractive stopover for two people who had never been there. I was thinking of Charleston as I read this story in Acts. The writer indicates that there were currently in Jerusalem people from all over the world.
