Fall on Hilton Head Island is a wonderful, laid-back time of year since school has started and our summer visitors have gone home until next year.nbsp; Also gone is the humidity; the weather is beautiful, and it is the perfect time of year to enjoy the beach. nbsp;Restaurants are not as crowded and the traffic is not as bad. Fall brings a lot of fun activities to the Island. Here are just a few suggestions of ldquo;not to be missedrdquo; things to do if you are here in the Fall: Although we donrsquo;t have a lot of Fall color like our friends in the North, The Arts Center of Coastal Carolina is providing us with ldquo;colorrdquo; this Fall as it opens its new 2017/18 season with The Color Purple which runs from October 4-22.nbsp; This award-winning production is the tale of 40 years in the life of a family in rural Georgia.nbsp; This stirring family chronicle follows the inspirational 14-year-old Celie as she journeys from childhood through joy, anguish and then hope as she discovers the power of love and life.nbsp; For ticket information, show times and the complete 2017/18 season schedule, contact The Arts Center at 888-860-2787 or on their website, www.artshhi.com.
