The curator was very knowledgeable. He gave me a great tour even though I didn’t call ahead to arrange a tour. This place is full of information! I loved the beautiful paintings and pictures. There is a lot of reading so make sure you have some time before you go.

I've come here many years. So many events and meetings. Most often I'm there for the Nefetari dance group, which practices there regularly. There are also community events. Attended Kwanzaa there, and it was very deep and infectious, I don't think there was anyone who was not feeling the good vibes. The museum display is very small, I would love to see it bigger. A nice community place

The Wisconsin Black Historical Society is a highly recommended place to frequent. It is a great cultural and historical learning experience for schools, individuals, or family trips. I've been there a number of times, including the annual Fresh Perspective Urban Heroes Art exhibit. The founder Mr. Clayborn Benson is very knowledgeable and passionate about Black History. This is definitely a gem nestled in the heart of the community. Give them a call and schedule a visit or during their regular hours. There is a parking lot in the rear of the building for your convenience. This museum is a cultural gem.

This organization needs a lot more donations & sponsorship. Lots of info there & is very interesting. More money for upkeep and a remodel is needed so Black American history in Milwaukee can be told properly.

Kwanzaa Celebrations and Research and much more

Kay Jones

Very interesting museum and quite a large collection of Wisconsin black history memorabilia. No admission fee. Please leave a donation to help keep this museum going.

Nick Heger

Cool spot to learn about history in Milwaukee. Lots of great pictures from the 60's and 70's amidst the civil-rights marches in the city.

JC Davenport

Great displays, tons of information and wonderful personal tours by first the daughter of the founder and then the founder himself - Clayborn Benson! Museum is in a poorer area of Milwaukee but we felt very safe.

Patricia Sumnicht

This is a great place to learn much history that will not be in your history book. Please donate to help programs through this organization grow!
