The Jennie Gowan Memorial Art Show is held annually in early summer. The show was established in honor of Jennie Gowan, a founding member and tireless advocate of the Edisto Art Guild. Dee Moseley wrote: “Her generous personality, wisdom in leadership, and never tiring work for the guild set a wonderful example for all of us to follow”. After her passing in 2002, the Jennie Gowan Memorial Art Show was established as an annual event in her honor. This is a juried exhibition open to all members of the Edisto Art Guild.
