A Museum of Black Experiences, Inc

A Museum of Black Experiences (AMusBE), a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization, will operate as a museum and cultural space in Saginaw, MI, dedicated to collecting, preserving, and exhibiting art and artifacts that depict the experiences of Black people locally, regionally, nationally, and abroad. We hope to open Juneteenth/Summer 2024. AMusBE will also serve as a physical and virtual space that incubates, promotes, and engages local artist communities, creatives, cultural collectors, and enthusiasts.

AMusBE's promise is to connect residents and visitors to local, regional, and global expressions of Black experiences. The mission of AMusBE is to serve as a community institution for well-curated exhibitions and top-notch events that highlight Black cultural, historical, and artistic expressions and experiences. AMusBE's vision is to be recognized as an essential destination for engaging in fun and tough conversations about the role of race and Blackness in world cultures, while observing these interpretations through art and other creative expressions.

AMusBE will invite communities to well-curated exhibitions and events of Black cultural experiences, while highlighting their impacts in art, history, politics, religion, and geography, to facilitate learning, cultural connections, and the creation of community and alliances.
