12th Annual Low Country Boil
On June 5th, 2025, the Fountain Inn Museum hosted its 12th Annual Low Country Boil. It was an unforgettable night filled with great food, live and silent auctions, local music, and a whole lot of community spirit!
Friends and supporters from across the Upstate gathered under the stars to raise funds for the Museum’s exhibits, educational programs, and ongoing preservation efforts. Guests enjoyed a delicious low country feast catered by The Farehouse, fun auction items (including a few show-stoppers!), and plenty of laughter and good conversation throughout the evening. Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, donors, and everyone who attended, this year’s Boil was a huge success. Helping us continue our mission to celebrate and preserve the history, heritage, and culture of Fountain Inn and the surrounding area.
Scroll through the photos below to relive some of the highlights from this year’s event, and stay tuned for details about next year’s Boil. We can’t wait to see you there!
A HUGE thank you to our amazing sponsors who made the 12th Annual Low Country Boil possible!

Step into the world of Aunt Het, the sharp-tongued cartoon character created by Robert Quillen for the Fountain Inn Tribune. First published in the 1930s, Aunt Het’s witty observations on small-town life are as hilarious and insightful today as they were nearly a century ago. This gallery highlights her timeless cartoons, showcasing Quillen’s humor, keen eye for humanity, and the unfiltered truths that made Aunt Het a local legend and a beloved figure in newspapers across the U.S., Canada, and beyond.
