Northwest African American Museum

Description

Cognizant of the black community’s continuous evolution, NAAM focuses on African Americans whose route to the new world was through slavery as well as recent immigrants arriving from places such as Somalia, Sudan, and Ethiopia.

NAAM’s mission is to spread knowledge, understanding, and enjoyment of the histories, arts, and cultures of people of African descent for the enrichment of all. We accomplish our mission by working with others to:
-Present and preserve the connections between the Pacific Northwest and people of African descent; and to
-Investigate and celebrate Black experiences in America through exhibitions, programs, and events.
