Lunch & Learn - The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly of the Bull Street Asylum

The South Carolina State Asylum on Bull Street in Columbia was established in 1821. Its long history reflects the changing field of psychology over the years. Before good came out of the struggle to identify and treat mental illness, the growing pains were not only bad but downright ugly. Join Phyllis Brown, museum volunteer, on October 7, 2025, at noon with your lunch in hand as we discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly of the Bull Street Asylum.
