Great place to social distance during COVID the staff is friendly and they’re constantly cleaning. Plenty of hand sanitizer at sensible locations. The art was great and thought provoking and the fee for entrance was very affordable! When we went mid day on a Sunday we practically had every exhibit to ourselves.

This is a very Phenomenal and community gathering Museum that shares history on the stages of African American history and cultures over the years. It's more than pictures.... it's a symbol of movement thru art! Go check it out. K-Jae TallLikeMePhotography

A wonderful museum showcasing some of Charlotte's history, female artist, local artist, and activities for thw children...as well as a place for community engagement. Visitors to Charlotte should add this to their itinerary. I checked into my hotel down the street and changed on the perfect time to visit- the museum was honoring the architect who had passed the day before. So a guided tour was given that Wednesday evening by the educational director for the center. On Sunday I went back for a second visit with my mum and some friends.
