Museum Reviews
I absolutely enjoyed this museum. There is so much history, the Director was so knowledgeable and excited that it added to the tour. I WILL go again
We had a BLAST here to celebrate Juneteenth! The vendors were amazing and we enjoyed supporting the local small businesses. There were activities for the kids and museum plaques to read for the adults. We will be back next year. Thank you to ALL that participated in the event.
Juneteenth was amazing at the museum. Going back to spend more time with each exhibit. So much to see and learn😍
Important history with the most incredible and kind staff! You will be so glad you stopped by 🤠
I wish more people knew about this place. Wonderful experience for Juneteenth. Important part of our history.
This museum is loaded with historical photos & documentations highlighting the contributions & accomplishments made by African Americans. The Juneteenth celebration was top-notch, very well organized & extremely entertaining for all ages.
Amazing place of history and culture. Would love to come back with my children.
Being a White woman born and raised in the South (NC), I saw and experienced firsthand how our Black sisters and brothers were treated during segregation. I can’t begin to imagine what it was like to be Black during those evil years of slavery. Having only recently learned through Ancestry that I am 1% Black, I never experienced being shunned and denigrated because of it. It has given me many things to contemplate and to be thankful for.A few months ago, I was privileged to visit the George Washington Carver Museum and Cultural Center in Phoenix. Having been raised during segregation, I perhaps know more than the average American about this disgraceful period in American history. As such, I am thankful for the opportunity through this museum to learn more about the Black side of my heritage. Dr. Matthew C. Whitaker, PH.D, and his wonderful staff, graciously led a group of Trinity Episcopal Cathedral Seniors through the museum, shared it history, and the dreams for the Center’s future.
It was inspiring and featured great information on the history of Black people's plight in this country. Also, reading the history on display regarding George Washington Carver and all he has contributed to America was great. I recommend anyone who enjoys knowing about historical events must visit this museum.
Still a work in progress. Lots of good artifacts, but need more descriptions (however, that's being worked on) Very friendly staff and great future expansion plans
