Charleston boasts over 200 historic homes, each telling a story of a bygone era. The Mississippi County Historical Society Museum, housed in the elegant Moore House, showcases artifacts from the Civil War, Native American cultures, and early settler life. Nearby, the McCutchen Theatre, a 1940s Art Deco gem, stands as a testament to the town's rich cultural heritage.

Held annually in April, the Dogwood-Azalea Festival is Charleston's signature event, attracting visitors from across the region.

The festival features a variety of activities, including arts and crafts vendors, live music performances, a parade, a pageant, a 5K run, and even a dog show. It's a time when the community comes together to showcase local talent, enjoy delicious food, and celebrate the beauty of the season.
