African American Cultural and Heritage Facility

Great location and a wonderful community hub - this place and the people there are serving and important role in Austin and making a difference for people of color. The vibe is great and the impact is even greater! Be sure to check out the concert series as well.

This is a great space in the heart if Austin. I've been to a few well executed events in the space. The layout leads to a myriad of options.

The staff are super friendly and knowledgeable. This center showcases wonderful art pieces from Africa and the African American community here in Austin. This place is a treasure.

Small but has a lot of potential. Great for a small gathering. Overall, a lot of African-American history.

Beautiful facility. Attended an amazing event focused on mental health awareness and suicide prevention.

Great concept and community supprt. The staff are very professional and friendly -- especially Ms Brenda.

Great facilities just small and large enough

Amazing place on the verge of downtown. Welcoming and open for everyone!

What a beautiful experience to explore the African American Cultural and Heritage Facility (museum). Finally on my 4th visit to Austin I explored more areas like Six Square, Austin's Black Cultural District. The museum has a circular front with glass and columns. It is open, airy inside and was pristine. Although small inside yet packed in history and culture. It is free admission and they accept donations. I found the Juneteenth information to the most informative. As an east coaster, with foundational knowledge of Juneteenth, I learned so much more through video montage, photographs with editorial providing context. It is inspiring how the African American community in Austin and the state of Texas has maintained and shared the importance of Juneteenth to everyone through educational celebrations, parades, food/culinary gatherings, and spiritual/religious services wrapped in love, family and community. Another highlight of this visit was the exhibition by Riley Holloway, "What I Carry". I found his artistic medium to be captivating showing elements of the AA experience through his family, church, summer fun, celebrations which to me was a bold statement of beauty, connection and community. I highly recommend a visit to this artistic treasure in Austin.
