Current Exhibits @ NAAM
Every Thursday - Sunday, 10am - 5pm (First Thursday open until 7pm)
The Northwest African American Museum is an anti-racist, pro-equity, affirming gathering place of hope, help, and healing for the entire Northwest region that is building intergenerational cultural wealth.
At the heart of the African American experience in the Northwest is the story of our journey to this region, the establishment of our vibrant community, and the ways in which we have survived. To tell this ever-unfolding story, the Museum’s exhibitions and programs feature the visual arts, music, crafts, literature, and history of African Americans in the Northwest. 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.
The Northwest African American Museum reopened its building operations on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day 2023. We welcome you back in the building! Come and check out all that’s new at NAAM!
