Gullah O’oman Shop

Gullah is a culture and a language with roots dating back to the tribes of Africa. Native Africans brought as slaves to America, also brought this beautiful and diverse culture with them. Music, art, food and storytelling are just a few of the treasures that the Gullah people bring to the rich tapestry that is the essence of our nation's history.
 

 

AfricaVermell and Andrew Rodrigues are the founders of the Gullah O'oman Shop, which is as much of a museum as it is a shop. Mrs. Rodrigues was raised Gullah in South Carolina and upon retirement she and her husband returned to open the shop in Pawleys.

Here you will find memorabilia, art and knowledge of a scarcely known society that is still thriving today. Take a trip to another space and time when you step Off the Beaten Track and through the doors of the Gullah O'oman Shop and Museum in Pawleys Island, South Carolina.
