The Amistad Center for Art & Culture We celebrate art and culture influenced by people of African descent through education, scholarship and social experiences.

For 35 Years, We’ve Celebrated Our Story. For many Black Americans, Memorial Day also carries deep historical significance because Black soldiers fought for freedoms abroad while often still fighting for equality at home. From the Buffalo Soldiers to the Tuskegee Airmen and countless unsung heroes, their sacrifices are an important part of American and African American history. Today we honor and celebrate you.
