FAAHPN Museums
Directory of Florida African-American Museums
With each passing day, dozens of books, papers, photographs, diaries, artifacts, buildings, landmarks and other valuable historical records and resources are lost due to neglect, mishandling, and/or ignorance of their value. These resources – that give voice to the African American story – are critically endangered and must be rescued, and documented, before it is too late. It is for reasons such as this that the Florida African American Heritage Network (FAAHPN) exists as a professional museum and historical preservation association. Its mission is to promote the preservation of African American landmarks and legacies and assist statewide museums in discovering, archiving and illuminating the blended interrelationships of African American, Native American and Europeans as an enduring public resource through tourism and education.
