This year’s event will be Saturday from 6 to 11 p.m. After a two-year hiatus due to a lack of sponsorship, Habitat for Humanity brought the reunion back in 2011 as a fundraiser. The first Pawleys Pavilion Reunion was in 1998 and sponsored by the S.C. When Habitat officials found out the mural’s history they reached out to Grayson and invited her to be their guest at the reunion. Grayson was pleased that the mural is going to be displayed. The mural will be in place in time for Saturday’s reunion. “He was terribly excited about the idea of doing something with it.”īuice and Mark Pender built a frame for the mural and plan to place it by the Nature Park along Pawleys Creek where the pavilion stood that is now a kayak landing. “I was trying to convey it to a home that would make good use of it,” Kenny said. The mural was too large for the Kennys to display so they gave it to Robbie Buice, the chairman for the reunion. Stines gave it Paul Kenny because Kenny’s wife, Maura, is an artist. Grayson gave the mural to Nick Stines, hoping eventually it might end up in the island’s new Town Hall.

After the event the mural was given to Sarah Grayson of Litchfield, who grew up in Kingstree but spent a lot of time on Pawleys Island with her family. It was later made into a print.Ĭraig Stephenson of Custom Signs and Graphics in Kingstree painted the mural for a Kingstree High School reunion in June 1996. The image on the mural will probably be familiar to a lot of people since it was taken from an iconic picture postcard taken by the Florence photographer Ernest Ferguson. Most of the people who attend the Pawleys Pavilion Reunion every year never got a chance to dance at any of the island’s four pavilions, the last of which was destroyed by a fire in 1970.īut this year’s attendees will be able to have their pictures made with a 10-foot by 30-foot mural of the pavilion that stood in the mid-1960s.
