This home is practically right on the ocean, with a boardwalk that leads right onto the beach. It has an ocean-level porch where you can sip on coffee and cocktails and watch the waves crash.

Starving Artist Supper Club

There is a new club in Charleston, and we are not talking event spaces or bars. We are talking about “Calabriations”, otherwise known as the Starving Artist Supper Club.
This is an ongoing series put on by Chef Graham Calabria. For the event, he pairs up with an artist to create a themed dinner that incorporates the motifs from the art into the meal.
During the evening, guests can shop the artwork while enjoying bites from Chef Graham.
The next supper club will be on Saturday, July 10, at Union Station and will feature artwork from Maggie Mazza. Maggie is based out of Folly Beach, and her art focuses on magical realism.
Keep your eyes posted for a ticket release because Chef Graham posts all tickets on his Instagram: @ChefGrahamCalabria. The tickets have not yet been released for the supper club on July 10.
