MYSTERY PHOTO: Looks religious

Here’s a neat building that looks kind of religious, but is it?  What is it and where?  Send your best guess to editor@charlestoncurrents.com.  And don’t forget to include your name and the town in which you live.  And if you’ve got a clever mystery photo for our readers, send it to the same address (Try to stump us!)

Our previous Mystery Photo

Last week’s mystery, “Wild mural,” was tough, particularly if you didn’t live on James Island or have not been to the Pour House, which is where it was located.  

But that didn’t stop two veteran out-of-town guessers (Allan Peel of San Antonio, Texas; and George Graf of Palmyra, Va.) and two locals (Paul Chirles and Chip Davis, both of James Island) from correctly identifying the mural.

Peel shared a little about the artwork, which he said had been recently painted as “part of the 2021 Mural Competition organized as a joint effort by the Charleston Pour House, Redux Contemporary Art Center and Charlietown Prints and sponsored by Terrapin Beer Co. The mural in the mystery photo is one of 23 competitors that were painted during the Pour House’s open hours between Jan. 11-18, 2021. Cash awards were given to the three top ‘fan-favorites’, chosen by customers of the music venue. This particular mural, while attractive, was not a winner in this year’s competition. Better luck next time!”
