AFRICAN AMERICAN MUSEUMS OF HISTORY AND CULTURE
AAHGS works in collaboration with our nation’s African American Museums of History and Culture in preserving our national history and heritage.
Each museum enriches the history of their local African American community, and we encourage our members to work to collect and preserve local history, artifacts and the genealogy of local African American families.
If you would like to preserve your local history and work on a special proejct, please contact us.
