Mount Pleasant Pier’s Shuckin’ on the Cooper postponed to Jan. 12

[MOUNT PLEASANT] --- Originally scheduled for Dec. 8, Charleston County Parks’ Shuckin’ on the Cooper event has been postponed to Jan. 12 due to inclement weather. The event offers guests the opportunity to enjoy oysters and beverages while enjoying live music at the foot of the Mount Pleasant Pier.

Shuckin’ on the Cooper will take place from 1 to 4 p.m. on Jan. 12. The Mount Pleasant Pier stretches 1250 feet into the harbor at the foot of the Arthur Ravenel, Jr. Bridge.

Buckets of oysters will be available for purchase on site during Shuckin’ on the Cooper. Admission is $8 in advance or $10 on site if available, but advance ticket purchase is recommended. Buckets of oysters, provided by Charleston Bay Gourmet, will be available for $10 each on site.

Live music will be provided throughout the evening by alternative folk singer-songwriter Joshua Jarman. Treating the acoustic guitar like some forgotten limb, Joshua unveils percussive qualities of the instrument. Minor chords aided by the thumping heart of the acoustic guitar accompany Joshua's impacting vocals. His music may be heard at JoshuaJarman.bandcamp.com.

Alcoholic beverages and Coke products will be available for purchase at the event location. Treats and snacks will also be for sale at the pier’s Riverwatch Cafe and Gift Shop, located on the other end of the Mount Pleasant Pier. Outside alcohol and coolers are prohibited. Food and beverage fees are not included in ticket price.
