A mobile education program that moves Black history beyond the textbooks

Let's Get to Work

Black history–for EVERYONE!

Our highly interactive touch museum experience is specifically designed to bolster all students' understanding of the transformative impact of Black history.

In honor of the 2026 Black History Month theme: A Century of Black History Commemorations, students will deepen their knowledge of a broad range of changemakers who have impacted local and global communities through inventions, scientific innovations, activism, arts and entertainment, and so much more.
