We're on a mission to showcase and celebrate Black history, arts & culture! 

This is a transformative time in history. A time for greater understanding, equity, and unity. 

As the only Black museum in the Pacific Northwest, NAAM offers ongoing opportunities for people to celebrate and learn about African American history, arts & culture. Our exhibitions & programs inform, inspire, and connect us. 

YOU make all the difference! To those who have already donated, thank you! If you have not yet donated or would like to make an additional gift, click the 'Donate' button (at the top of this page). 

*Matching Fund: Thanks to a generous NAAM supporter, donations of $1,000 or more will be TRIPLE matched through Nov. 13!*

Your gift provides:

• Thought-provoking art exhibitions & educational programs — such as our K-12 School Tours, Youth Curator Program, Interrupting Privilege, and Knowledge is Power: Children's Book Giveaway. Local & national collaborative programs like Juneteenth (BlkFreedom.org), Know Your Vote, It Takes a Village: from Pandemic to Protest, and Scribes Youth Writing Camp. Flagship events including King Day, Grandparents Day, and HBCU Sunday.
• Racial equity programming that further engages our community in meaningful, educational conversations around awareness and action. 
• Necessary operating support — our temporary closure due to COVID-19 has had significant consequences impacting the financial well-being of the Museum. We depend on revenue from admission and program attendance, membership, rentals, and events that have not been possible at this time. We expect lost revenue, plus the cost of operating expenses for March - Oct. to total more than $600,000.
